General Support

Some gifts to the national collections administered by the USCCB may be tax deductible if allowed by law; however, the USCCB strongly encourages donors to speak with a tax specialist to confirm deductibility.

Your support makes a real impact. When your gift is combined with those from other Catholics and people of goodwill, it becomes a powerful means to support the Church’s work of evangelization, catechesis, social justice, and institutional development locally, nationally, and worldwide – including emergency disasters.  

You can be part of the Church’s critical work by donating at Mass or through your parish online giving platform. #iGiveCatholicTogether also accepts funds for the collections. You can also send your donation to: 

Office of National Collections
United States Conference of Catholic Bishops
P. O. Box 96278
Washington DC 20090-6278

Make your check payable to USCCB-name of collection (e.g. USCCB-Church in Latin America, USCCB-Catholic Communication Campaign, etc...).

Gifts for the Peter’s Pence Collection should NOT be sent to USCCB but instead should be sent directly to the Vatican through the Apostolic Nunciature in the United States at 3339 Massachusetts Ave. NW, Washington DC 20008.
