Veterans Day: Children from the community meet with veterans on campus to say “thank you.”

Thanksgiving Basket Project: Each year, the campus community sponsors local families with a holiday meal at Thanksgiving. We typically serve about 100 families who have been recommended by social service agencies and churches, sponsored by clubs, organizations, and individual donors.

Mercy Leaders Scholarship Program: The Mercy Leaders Program is an initiative that recognizes, trains, and supports students who are civically engaged. A very selected group of students pledge to complete 150 hours of service in on calendar year, and, in exchange for that commitment, will receive leadership, training, and support from the staff and fellow Mercy leaders, and participate in ongoing supervision and reflection activities. Students who enroll in this program and successfully complete the 200 hours of service will receive an award of $1000 to be taken off their tuition.
