Since 1887, Mercy Home has been a refuge for kids escaping from the cycle of violence, abuse and neglect by providing the tools necessary for a bright future, such as a safe home, therapy, education resources, mentoring, tutoring, job skills and aftercare support. With your donation, Mercy Home can help children overcome past traumas and discover their full potential, because no distance is too far to save a child.
If you are unable to attend the Benefit Concert but would still like to support Mercy Home for Boys & Girls, you can make a donation directly through organizer Pete Miscinski’s fundraising page.
