The Mercy Health Clinic was founded in 2000 by a small group of concerned citizens from Our Lady of Mercy Church and local physicians who wanted to provide medical care to our neighbors in Montgomery who did not have health insurance.

Today, we leverage a small staff with the support of a volunteer corps of at least 45 physicians, who provide all of our specialty care, with the assistance other medical and administrative volunteers, all of whom make the vital work of Mercy Health Clinic possible. This volunteer corps is essential to meeting the comprehensive needs and capacity of our patient population.

We need your help.

We have opportunities to volunteer for both medical professionals and those with administrative skills (we especially need those with Spanish / English interpreting and translating skills).

We would be unable to see patients on a consistent basis without our dedicated volunteers. Thank you for making our work possible!

Host a donation drive and collect items our patients need!

Purchasing over the counter medications and first aid supplies can be a burden for our patients. Over-the-counter medications  are often prescribed to patients as first step treatments or part of a broader treatment plan but are often difficult for patients to afford. Donation drives allow us to have them available when needed!

This is a perfect opportunity for groups and / or families with children. (SSL hours may be available for teens and tweens.)
