Who We Are

Our Foundation

Mercy Health Foundation Jefferson is a charitable organization supporting Mercy Hospital Jefferson and Mercy Clinic South. The Foundation supports programs and services to help those who are unable to afford the care they need, as well as helping advance technologies and purchasing life-saving equipment. Mercy Health Foundation Jefferson also helps in the launch and expansion of much-needed programs in our community such as our behavioral health intensive outpatient program. 

Mercy Health Foundation Jefferson is a nonprofit organization. We are dependent on the donations and support of generous foundations, corporations and caring individuals like you. Thanks to your generours donations, the Foundation played a vital role in the recent expansion of both adolescent and adult behavioral health services.  Your support has also had significant impacts on the child birth center, community education and charity care, as well as support for the Nurse Navigation program.

When you invest in Mercy Health Foundation, you support critical projects in our community. That’s right. Every dollar you give advances health care right here at home.
