45% of Families on Mercy Drive
Live Below The Poverty Line
That’s more than triple the national average. Or, 5 out of 10 families who will stay in poverty within the next generation. Without youth programs or mentorships, this crisis becomes a repeating cycle.
But when we give a foundation — education, life skills, and spiritual guidance, we can make lasting change in our community. It's helping people help themselves.
We call it a change of heart.
Change Starts With
The Heart
We believe that lasting change starts when you help people help themselves. That's why our programs focus on building that foundation. It's spiritual guidance through practical means. See how your help is making the difference in Mercy Drive.

You have planted them, and they have taken root; they grow and bear fruit. You are always on their lips, but far from our hearts.
