The Birthday Offering is one of Presbyterian Women’s two offerings. Received in the spring each year, it gives women a tangible way to celebrate the blessings in their lives. The Birthday Offering funds up to five projects each year, in amounts of $75,000 to $150,000 each. This offering provides grants to enable a variety of ministries supported by churches and Presbyteries around the country and world. The 2021 Birthday Offering recipients include:
- Garden Gate Ranch, Inc. in Des Moines, Iowa is a Christian organization that provides safe housing and restorative and transitional services for sexually-exploited women and their children. The Birthday Offering will assist Garden Gate Ranch in their mission by providing a separate education center for programming, therapeutic services and vocational rehabilitation.
- Memorial Drive Ministries, Inc. in Stone Mountain, Georgia. The Birthday Offering grant will provide a desperately needed roof to replace one that leaks onto the gymnasium floor where sewing, karate, dance, frisbee, badminton, basketball and other after-school activities take place.
- Nkhoma Mission Hospital in Nkhoma, Malawi. The Nkhoma Mission Hospital in Nkhoma, Malawi (located in southeastern Africa) offers affordable, accessible healthcare services for all, inspired by the love of Jesus Christ. The Birthday Offering grant will provide funds to build an obstetrics and gynecology-specific operating room next to the existing prenatal and maternity wards.
