A huge Go Raibh Maith Agaibh to the pupils and teachers of Scoil Náisiúnta Réidh na nDóirí who raised a fantastic €450 at their dress up/dress down day in aid of Mercy Heroes 👏👏

One of our own Mercy Heroes, Antóin Cremin, took time out to visit the school and thank them on behalf of the Mercy Foundation.

The funds rasied by Scoil Réidh na nDóirí will fund advanced care and hope for patients and their families. Thank you!

Christmas morning looked a little different in Carrigaline this year. While most of us were wrapped up warm, Eugene O’Donnell and a group of friends and family were heading straight for the sea 🌊

Braving the cold temperatures, they came together for a Christmas swim for a cause close to their hearts!

Eugene recently visited us the Mercy Foundation to present a donation of €1535, raised through his festive swim collection. Every euro raised will support men’s health in the Mercy, helping to fund advanced care and offering hope to patients and their families when they need it most.

A heartfelt thank you to Eugene, to everyone who joined him and to all who supported ❤️

“Mercy University Hospital believes that the care delivered to patients and their families at end-of-life, should be the same care that we would give to our own family and loved ones."

The Mercy Foundation is proud to support the hospital’s work by funding vital equipment, services and supports that help enhance patient care - made possible through the generosity of our donors, volunteers and community.
