In light of COVID - 19, some of our most vulnerable members of the community are at higher risk for health and housing issues than ever.
Restaurant owners and employees have been hard-hit by the pandemic. In response, we're combining efforts to keep restaurants operational and to keep our most vulnerable residents (families, seniors and formerly homeless) healthy.
Many residents face challenges such as difficulty accessing and navigating the healthcare system, obtaining high-quality health care, and accessing healthy food that is needed to stay healthy. COVID - 19, for many vulnerable residents, has amplified their concerns.
Mercy Housing is dedicated in helping families, seniors and individuals now more than ever. Please consider volunteering today to partner with us in our efforts.
Once a week, we will meet at a central location, deliver and distribute meal kits to households at various Sacramento Mercy Housing sites. Please sign up to help today!
Volunteers like you make it possible! We are in this together!

About Mercy Housing California
Location:
1360 Mission Street,, Suite 300, San Francisco, CA 94103, US
Mission Statement
To create stable, vibrant and healthy communities by developing, financing and operating affordable, program-enriched housing for families, seniors and people with special needs who lack the economic resources to access quality, safe housing opportunities.
Description
Mercy Housing was founded in 1981 in response to the lack of stable, affordable housing for vulnerable populations. In working to fulfill our mission, Mercy Housing California has developed more than 154 affordable housing communities in 36 counties throughout California, providing 17,000+ homes and serving over 24,000 people in need.
Mercy's commitment to program-enriched housing distinguishes us from many other large scale affordable housing developers. Housing is foundational - everyone needs a home. But many people who have endured poverty and other challenges need an additional hand-up to create the lives they want for themselves and their families. Our dedicated staff and volunteers work with residents right in their homes and neighborhoods on issues like health and wellness, housing stability, financial security as well as provide a full range of enriching out-of-school time options for youth.
