Dearest Mercy Family,

Each day, the lives of our young women are transformed through the gift of a Mercy education. I am grateful for your time and treasure on behalf of our school through giving, volunteering, attending events and spreading good news about Mercy.

You are a vital part of the Mercy community and we are thankful for you. Be reminded of the words of Catherine McAuley, Founder of the Sisters of Mercy, “No work of charity can be of more good to society than the careful instruction of women.”

The world needs women of Mercy today more than ever.

In Mercy,
