When a young Irish woman named Catherine McAuley received an unexpected inheritance, she gave thanks to God and her benefactor. Catherine used those funds to open the first house of Mercy, serving impoverished women and children in Dublin.
Since 1992, Mercy Family Center (MFC) has consistently and creatively responded to the needs in the Greater New Orleans area by providing comprehensive, community-based mental health services for children, adolescents, adults and families. We need your support to help change lives and give hope to the underserved people in our community.
Catherine’s legacy lives on through the generous gifts of donors like you. Gifts to Mercy Family Center support uninsured and underinsured children and families in our community who need mental health care. That’s right. Every dollar you give advances health care right here at home.
