English term or phrase: second mile
The United Methodist Global Fund is an advance special, which is second-mile giving.

J'ai besoin de votre aide pour trouver une équivalence à cette expression. Il me semble que cela s'oppose à "first mile" (priorité) dans le système de distribution des fonds de l'Eglise Evangélique Méthodiste. J'attends vos suggestions.
Je vous remercie.

French translation:Second Mile giving
Explanation:
Je n'ai pas encore trouvé de traduction française mais l'expression est à prendre en entier, il y a apparemment trois sortes d'offrandes, one mile giving (=tithing in the Bible), second mile giving (= offerings) and third mile giving (=alms). VOir explications sur le document ci-joint en anglais.
