Plan for Your Child's Success—Join Our Free Workshop!

Mercy Home for Boys &amp; Girls is being spotlighted on the Sherri Takiff Zirlin Community Art Wall located in the lobby of First Bank Chicago. The new exhibit highlights their vision to provide stability, security, and care for the most vulnerable children in Chicago.
Since 1887, Mercy Home for Boys &amp; Girls has provided children and families with healing and tools to build brighter futures. It gives children who&rsquo;ve experienced abuse, neglect, or violence a safe home, educational support, and career guidance. Many young people face serious, even life-threatening adversity. Abuse. Neglect. Insecure homes and struggling schools. Growing up surrounded by violence, poverty, and lack of opportunity, or lack of stable housing, young people like these need a safe harbor. Mercy Home for Boys &amp; Girls offers kids just this kind of home. A place free from fear. A place to heal from the past. A place where they can grow into independent adults who go out and leave their own mark on the world.
&ldquo;Our ability to give young people and families the tools they need to heal and build brighter futures depends entirely on making more people aware of our mission and the ways they can get involved. That's why we designed our display to explain how we help the children and families who turn to us and how anyone can play a role,&rdquo; says Rev. L. Scott Donahue, President &amp; CEO, Mercy Home for Boys &amp; Girls
Mercy Home gives its young people the safety they need right now, the therapy they need to move forward, and the tools they need to build brighter futures. Tools like a good education, life skills, career exploration and so much more. They also assist hundreds more children and families by connecting them to a vast network of accredited professional service-agencies throughout metropolitan Chicago. 
Rev. L. Scott Donahue continues, &ldquo;Mercy Home is deeply grateful to First Chicago Bank for their continued support, and for inviting us to reach out to the community in this unique way. Part of the display invites the community to our upcoming Lux Gala in November at The Old Post Office in Chicago. Mercy Home is almost entirely donor funded, and the Lux Gala will raise significant resources to help young people overcome trauma, access a good education, and achieve lasting independence and success.&rdquo;
The Mercy Home for Boys &amp; Girls exhibit is located in the bank lobby and will be open to the public during regular business hours throughout the month of September.
