Ways to Give


Memorials & Tribute Gifts


Memorial Gifts
When someone learns of the death of a friend or loved one, the first instinct is to send a card or flowers. Sending flowers shows support and sympathy, but there is a better way. 
Show your love and sympathy with a memorial gift, a thoughtful and special way to recognize a relative, friend, community leader or loved one.  Give a gift that lasts forever and help make a difference in their lives and the lives of thousands touched by the works of the Sisters of Mercy.

Tribute Gifts
Gifts can also be made in honor of a special person who has touched your life.  Anniversaries, birthdays, and life achievement celebrations are wonderful occasions to make a tribute gift. Tribute gifts are also perfect for that someone who seem to have everything.

Also, in recognition of the excellent care received from our professional healthcare team, many of our patients wish to give something back. A gift in honor or in memory of a family member or friend who received care at a Mercy hospital or medical center offers a permanent and significant way to say, “Thank You,” to the physicians, nurses, therapists and other members of Mercy’s healthcare team who were there when you needed them most. Your gift not only recognizes the people who cared for you or your loved ones, it directly supports the care they provide—from purchasing the latest medical technologies, to funding continuing education for caregivers. No matter the size of your gift, the sense of gratitude we share is immense.

While many choose these types of gifts to be directed to Where the Need is Greatest as a lasting memory or in honor of someone special, memorial gifts and tributes can be directed to any program or service in healthcare, education, affordable housing, caring for the poor and the elderly.
