Extra Commitment Opportunities

There is a channel through which gifts can be designated for specific items that support the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)'s work around the world. These are called Extra Commitment Opportunities (ECOs). You can give directly to an ECO account online or by mailing your check designating the name and account number of the particular item you have chosen to:

PC(USA) Individual Remittance Processing
P.O. Box 643700
Pittsburgh, PA 15264-3700

Your gift will go directly into the ECO Account designated, and you will receive a letter indicating that your gift has been received and will be used for the purpose intended.

Currently there is one Extra Commitment Opportunity related to work in Ecuador. For other giving opportunities in the area visit Mission Funding's Web site and type in South America or other specific countries in the search box.

Other Support

Regional Liaison South America

Gifts to this ECO will be used to defray the direct and indirect costs of travel and operating expenses for the work of the regional liaison in helping implement agreed-upon programs with partner churches and institutions, supporting PC(USA) congregations and presbyteries in mission involvement with partners, and supporting PC(USA) mission personnel serving in the region. This region includes Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Uruguay, and Venezuela. The regional liaison also visits Presbyterian theological institutions and gatherings of Latin American seminaries and assists in developing and implementing a theological education strategy with the PC(USA)'s partners in the region.
