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.

Young Adults
YAV Time for God
Young adult volunteers (YAVs) serving in the Time for God program in the United Kingdom experience a year of developing Christian community through spiritual formation and volunteer service. Serving at several sites across the United Kingdom, young adult volunteers live together in Christian community and serve neighborhood ministries. Gifts to this ECO will be used for programmatic site support or to directly support young adult volunteers through reimbursement of outstanding students loans, housing and food allowances and/or a travel subsidy. |
