One Great Hour of Sharing — Sharing Resources, Changing Lives

How many things can you do in a given week that will create lasting change around the world? Since 1949 Presbyterians have joined with millions of other Christians through One Great Hour of Sharing to share God’s love with people experiencing need. The gifts support ministries of disaster response, refugee assistance and resettlement and community development that help people find safe refuge, start new lives and work together to strengthen their families and communities.

Where does the money go? The Presbyterian Hunger Program receives 36 % of undesignated One Great Hour of Sharing gifts, while the Self-Development of People and Presbyterian Disaster Assistance each receive 32 %.
