Offerings


Thank Offering

Collected each fall, the Thank Offering funds projects that meet the needs of people who are aging, disabled, homeless or displaced, as well as children, youth and women, through educational, health, peace and justice programs. Forty percent of this offering is used to support hospitals and community health programs. The remaining 60 percent is used for new creative ideas for mission.

Birthday Offering

The Birthday Offering is a PW offering collected in the spring of each year to celebrate the blessings in the lives of Presbyterian Women. The offering funds up to five projects that are not included in ongoing General Assembly mission support, such as agricultural development, child care, community organization, criminal justice, drug counseling, economic justice, elderly care, employment training, homelessness, literacy, violence and women’s concerns.


Christmas Offering

We also collect an offering at Christmas-time that is used to support local mission, such as Baldwin Center in Pontiac, Second Mile Center in Detroit, Alcott School Ministries, and other organizations that directly care for the needy.
