We're Expanding!
Southern Tier, September 18th, 2024 – Mercy House of the Southern Tier is excited to announce the next step forward in providing compassionate end-of-life care. A $2 million dollar planned expansion will provide more space to care for more people with terminal illnesses and support their families. To help finance and sustain this expansion, Mercy House has opened an Operations Support Fund with the initial goal of raising $600,000 dollars.
We are deeply grateful for the support we have already received from our community," said Linda Cerra, Executive Director of Mercy House of the Southern Tier. "This expansion is vital to our mission of providing a peaceful and compassionate environment for our residents. We invite everyone to join us in making this vision a reality by contributing to our donor campaign.
In 2016, Mercy House opened at its location on N. McKinley Avenue in Endicott and has cared for more than 1,230 residents. Less than a decade later it is embarking on a vision to expand, adding six new rooms equipped with private bathrooms and flexibility to meet unique care needs. Mercy House is committed to providing the highest quality of care and comfort, and this project will enhance that mission. Donations will also help offset increases in operational expenses that will come with construction and added space at Mercy House.
To date, Mercy House of the Southern Tier has received $1,013,243 in grant funding for the project with more grants and pledged private donations to follow. The $600,000 dollar Community Donor Campaign will help to provide the remainder of the funds needed for the expansion.
