What a wonderful night celebrating in CommUNITY with Moka Studios. Master Artist Charlotte Ka unveiled the pieces commissioned by McAuley Ministries a year ago at our Community Listening Session. Two angels representing the love of the Sisters of Mercy of the Americas have wings made from the words our partners chose to describe the meaning of CommUNITY - trust, vision, liberation, united, love and more. , . Our Mercy Corridor. And a very special Happy Birthday to Charlotte Ka.

When you give today to Pittsburgh Mercy, your donation unlocks prorated matching funds from

The Pittsburgh Foundation—helping your gift go even further for neighbors in need.

After a devastating ankle injury left Jodi unable to walk for 11 weeks, she suddenly found herself without safe, accessible housing. Second Avenue Commons provided a place where she could recover alongside her dog Ghost while accessing food assistance, housing resources, and the support she needed to heal.

Jodi’s story is a reminder that homelessness can happen to anyone after an unexpected crisis.

“I want to be able to help somebody who is in my situation—someone who just needs short-term help until they’re healed.”

Give today and help provide hope for people like Jodi. Together, we care. We heal. We empower: https://www.pittsburghgives.org/organization/PittsburghMercy
