PWS&D
Pesbyterian World Service & Development (PWS&D) is the development and relief agency of The Presbyterian Church in Canada. The work of PWS&D includes:
  • Responding to emergency situations after disaster and conflict
  • Long-term community development with international partners working in agriculture and livestock, education, health, HIV and AIDS, human rights, small business, clean water and sanitation
  • Refugee sponsorship by Canadian congregations.
PWS&D works with churches and organizations seeking to transform their communities by promoting justice, peace and the integrity of creation. PWS&D supports people and communities in Africa, Asia, Central America and Eastern Europe according to their need and regardless of their faith.
PWS&D is financially separate from the other agencies of the church. PWS&D receives funding directly from the Presbyterian constituency across the country, donations from individuals and from congregations, as well as from the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA). PWS&D does not receive funding from donations to Presbyterians Sharing.
