// KEY SERVICES PROVIDED

The PIME U.S. Mission Center in metro Detroit aids distant communities 鈥 with the help of supporters in the Detroit area. Since 1947, PIME (Pontifical Institute for Foreign Missions in Latin) has called metro Detroit its home in the United States.

The center helps through several programs: PIME Mission Development Projects provide sustainable aid to people who are literally or figuratively isolated; PIME Sponsorships at a Distance gives sponsors an opportunity to make an impact by supporting the physical rehabilitation of children with disabilities, the education of kids living in desperate poverty, or the housing of vulnerable children; and the PIME Chapel Building Program allows donors to establish places of worship for generations of faithful in areas where they may be secluded or marginalized. Join together with us and help us build sustainable futures.
