Volunteering at Mercy
Volunteers at Our Lady of Mercy School for Young Women complement and extend the activities and mission of the entire school. Working together with faculty and staff, volunteers perform specific duties and functions to increase the effectiveness of Mercy’s academic, enrollment, and development initiatives.
