Support Mercy

Many companies will match the donations that their employees make to nonprofit organizations. This can DOUBLE the impact of your gift! Some programs will even triple your support.

We encourage you to ask your employer if they offer matching gifts and to take advantage of how these programs can maximize your support of Mercy Academy!

Gifts of securities, stocks, and bonds are a great way to support our mission! Please see these instructions for your broker.

Please contact Director of Operations Stephanie Heitz if you have any questions about how to make a gift of stock and securities.

For individuals who are 70^1/2 years old and older, you can give up to $100,000 a year from your IRA directly to a nonprofit such as Mercy Academy. These gifts are free of income tax and can help you meet your required distribution. You may hear these gifts referred to as an IRA charitable distribution, an IRA charitable rollover, or a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD).

We encourage those who are considering this option to consult their financial or legal advisor. Please also let us know about your gift - many providers do not include details of your intentions!

We need volunteers for events all throughout the school year! Volunteers are often current families, but we also love to welcome alumnae, past families, and friends of Mercy to campus. If you are interested in learning more about volunteer opportunities, please contact Special Events Coordinator Valerie Downs.

If you know of an event you would like to volunteer at, you can add yourself to our Sign-Up Genius page here!
