In addition to raising funds for Mercy Hospital, the Friends of Mercy support local community events and advocate for our underserved neighbors by providing food and awareness through specialty projects. Most recently the Friends provided bicycles for youth in the community, and helped address food insecurity via their “Giving Garden” that supplied fresh vegetables to families facing hunger in the community. They also sponsor health presentations with various topics aiming to bring general health and mental health awareness to the community.
As a nonprofit, the Friends of Mercy are honored to support Mercy Hospital as they reinvest monies raised into world-class patient care, medical education and patient programs.

PROCEEDS & SUPPORT
Proceeds 2026
Proceeds this year will support a new modern Retail Pharmacy at Mercy Hospital. This patient-focused pharmacy will supply all patient medications both during their stay and as they return home, prescriptions for Mercy employees, as well as expand capacity to improve operational efficiency and outpatient services. Your generosity will help bring this vital project to life and ensure Mercy Hospital continues to meet the growing healthcare needs of our community.
