Upcoming Events
Tutoring and Mentoring
One of the central focuses of Hearts of Mercy is the Tutorial Program. Twice each week, students meet individually with their tutors for 60 minutes, either virtually or in person. Tutors generally use a portion of this time to help children complete homework, read together, or talk about hopes and dreams, and build a trusting relationship.
Sports and Summer Camp
Hearts of Mercy understands that sports and camp create opportunities to make friends, build skills, and have new and fun experiences. In partnership with local sports organizations and summer camps, and with the help of our volunteers, all fees, gear, and transportation are provided.
Family Support
With close connections to local school administrators, guidance counselors, teachers, churches, counselors and social workers, Hearts of Mercy strives to build on the strength within each family and stand with them when faced with challenges. Shared information between Hearts of Mercy and these entities allows us to understand needs and offer the kinds of support that will enhance the family situation.
