The Mercy Project is a Montreal-based non-profit organization that works in collaboration with community partners to support healthcare initiatives where resources are limited.

The Mercy Project provides financial support for various healthcare initiatives. Currently, our funding supports a health program at St. Jude Children's Home in Northern Uganda. In addition to the nurse’s salary and the nurse's assistant's salary, funds go towards medical supplies and emergency treatment.

The Mercy Project operates on a volunteer basis and we make every attempt to keep administrative fees as low as possible. These fees are restricted to banking and transfer fees, as well as minimal promotional and office supplies.

We make it a priority that your money goes to the areas where it is most needed: to the people in need and the programs supporting healthcare.

The Mercy Project currently accepts credit card and cheque donations through PayPal. A personal PayPal account is not needed in order to donate to our organization.

All cheques should be made payable to The Mercy Project.

If you wish to donate something other than money such as a venue, resources, gift certificates, or other materials, please contact us.

The Mercy Project is currently in the process of applying for Charitable Status. At this present time we are unable to issue tax receipts.

Every penny donated makes a difference, so there is no definite amount required. You may choose to donate once, or create a recurring donation at your convenience.
