About Mercy Home for Boys & Girls

Mercy Home provides children and families with healing and tools to build brighter futures. It gives children who’ve experienced abuse, neglect, or violence a safe home, educational support, and career guidance.

Because Mercy Home is nearly 100% privately funded, the support of people like you and me is critical to their mission. Thanks to your generous gift, these kids will receive hope and healing in a loving environment. I am taking on this challenge to ensure Mercy Home will continue to have the resources it needs to provide the best care possible. Our Mercy Home Heroes truly believe no distance is too far to save a child. I am running to ensure Mercy Home will continue to have the resources it needs to give these kids hope for tomorrow. As Mercy Home Heroes, we believe no distance is too far to save a child.
