Recognition & Thanks

Gratitude and hospitality are key values of the Mount Mercy community, grounded in the tradition of the Sisters of Mercy and our Catholic identity.

The President's Club

President’s Club members make the transformative Mount Mercy experience available to students through their visionary and inspiring leadership.

The President’s Club is comprised of alumni and friends who make a gift of $1,000 or more each fiscal year, July 1 to June 30. In thanks and recognition, President's Club members are invited to exclusive events.

The richest profits for our President’s Club members are in spirit, in the personal satisfaction of knowing that their steadfast, generous support has changed the lives of many young people who bring their dreams to Mount Mercy’s doors.

We invite you to join this distinguished group and help us sustain the academic excellence and continuing commitment that defines a Mount Mercy education, grounded in the spirit of the Sisters of Mercy.
