The Board of Pensions of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) traces its
roots to 1717, when Presbyterians established the Fund for Pious Uses to
financially assist ministers and their families. It is a not-for-profit
corporation under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and one
of six national agencies of the General Assembly, the governing body for
the PC(USA), which is the largest Presbyterian denomination in the
United States. The agency administers the church Benefits Plan and
Assistance Program, provides educational opportunities, and manages
investments of more than $9 billion. On behalf of PC(USA)-associated
employers, the approximately 185 people who work at the Board of
Pensions serve more than 50,000 employees, retirees, and family members.
