Support

A fundamental part of the YAV program is fundraising to help support my own ministry and the program as a whole. This year, all International YAVs are asked to raise $8,000 toward the program costs. Tax deductible donations can be made online here, or you can mail checks to:

Presbyterian Remittance Processing
P.O. Box 643700
Pittsburgh, PA 15264-3700

Please write my ECO number, E210308 and name, Rob Vaughan, on the memo line of the check or type both in the comment box if you donate online.

Many Thanks,

-Rob IV
