Because of your generosity, our Foundation continues to make a lasting difference for Mercy’s patients, programs and services. In FY26, you helped us raise almost $74,000 — and together, we distributed nearly $17,000 to improve the health of our community. We also committed $27,795 for future projects. This impact was made possible not only through this year’s gifts, but also through the strength of prior-year reserves and investment income. Thanks to you, we were ready to meet urgent needs with care and compassion.
Every year, lives are changed because donors like you stepped forward to give. This snapshot illustrates some of Mercy’s most critical fundraising initiatives that will benefit not only our patients and their families, but also our caregivers and our community.

Chris Hacopian is a retired Marine who served our country with unwavering courage. He recently found himself facing a new battle — a life-threatening illness coupled by a crippling fear of the medical system.
Chris had suffered an injury in the Marines that forced him to retire early. Through his recovery, chronic pain and countless appointments left him feeling more like a number than a person. Years later, when he became dangerously ill, Chris was reluctant to seek care.
With encouragement from his wife, he came to Mercy. The compassionate care he received here made all the difference.
