A Donor Advised Fund, or DAF, is an easy and meaningful way to give back to your community. It works like a charitable savings account, allowing you to support causes you care about now and in the future. When you make a grant to Mercy Health Foundation through a DAF, you help expand access to compassionate care and support vital health care programs for years to come!

Join Us in the Season of Creation!

Each September through October 4, the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi, Catholics around the world join together to renew “our relationship with our Creator and all creation.”

At Mercy, caring for creation is part of who we are. We’re reducing energy use across our facilities, not only lessening our environmental impact but also allowing more resources to go directly to patient care.

Our caregivers and patients also live this commitment daily—whether it’s through recycling, tending a garden, or supporting conservation efforts.

We invite you to pray with us and share in the celebration. Post a photo in the chat of how you care for creation—your small steps can inspire big change.

Creator of all,
we praise you for the gift of life
and for the faith that unites us in care for our common home
Prince of Peace, through your wounds, teach us to stand in solidarity
with the woundedness of others, of creation, and of the world.
Through your resurrection, make us people of hope—
May we come together as one family, to labor for your peace—
Amen

Mercy unequivocally condemns all violence and violent rhetoric. Our prayers are with Charlie Kirk’s family and loved ones after today’s horrifying act of violence.

Tonight, we were made aware of unacceptable statements made by a social media user whose profile says she’s a nurse at Mercy. We reviewed our employee records and can confirm this person does not, and has never, worked at Mercy. Mercy would never tolerate any employees celebrating violence, which would be a clear violation of not only our employee policies but also our mission as a healing ministry of Jesus.

Mercy joins the world in mourning the passing of Pope Francis, a humble servant leader and courageous voice for justice, whose compassion for others knew no bounds. He reminded us that the virtue of mercy is not passive - but rather a call to action - showing up for those who are overlooked, bringing hope to those who struggle and walking alongside people who are often forgotten.

We hold Pope Francis in our prayers: Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace.

As Pope Francis taught us, “Let us treat others with the same passion and compassion with which we want to be treated.” May we carry forward his legacy!

We're excited to work with UnitedHealthcare to provide better health care for all, allowing us to serve where care is needed — just like the Sisters of Mercy nearly 200 years ago.

“Mercy and UnitedHealthcare share a vision to treat people holistically, with a focus on value,” said Dan Kueter, CEO of UnitedHealthcare Employer & Individual.

Mercy’s top leaders recently gathered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where the Sisters of Mercy opened their first American hospital in 1847 in a city that did not have one, to honor the beginnings of Mercy in America.
