LOUISVILLE – The Presbyterian Committee on the Self-Development of People (SDOP) approved grants totaling $124,000 to fund several self-help projects in the United States and abroad. The national committee met recently to approve funding for the projects, funding which is made possible through the One Great Hour of Sharing. SDOP enables members and non-members of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) to form partnerships with oppressed and disadvantaged people and help them achieve self-sufficiency.

“Thanks to the generous gifts from our congregations, SDOP continues proclaiming good news to ‘the least of these,’” says newly elected SDOP national chairperson Rebecca Reyes. “It is humbling and a privilege to partner with people in the transformation of their lives. Thank you to all for making a difference.”
