The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' (USCCB) Subcommittee on the Church in Latin America approved funding for 265 pastoral projects, totaling $4.1 million. The funds will be disbursed as grants to aid the pastoral work of the Church in Latin America and the Caribbean.

Among the pastoral projects approved, the Subcommittee allocated over $365,000 for 41pastoral projects in Haiti and a little over $1 million to 3 reconstruction projects for the Church in Haiti.

Note that the funding for the reconstruction projects comes from the 2010 special collection for Haiti. All USCCB aid for reconstruction work in Haiti goes through the Partnership for Reconstruction of the Church in Haiti (PROCHE), an entity of the Haitian Bishops' Conference.
