About Mercy Health Foundation Oklahoma City
Mercy Health Foundation Oklahoma City’s largest recent awards were capital support grants to Mercy Hospital Oklahoma City: $568,634 in 2025 and $548,399 in 2024. That pattern points to a funder that uses major one-time gifts to strengthen Mercy’s local health-care infrastructure rather than spread small awards broadly. The foundation’s mission language is rooted in the healing ministry of Jesus, and its recent grants show that mission translated into support for hospitals and Mercy-affiliated organizations serving Oklahoma and nearby communities. Recent giving also includes support of mission to Mercy Research in Springfield, Missouri, with grants of $89,470 in 2024 and $50,531 in 2025. Those awards suggest a relationship that extends beyond direct patient care into the research and organizational side of Mercy’s work. A smaller 2024 capital grant to Mercy Hospital Watonga further shows that the foundation funds more than one facility, but still within a Mercy-centered network. Across the recent record, the foundation appears focused on health delivery, capital needs, and organizational support tied to Mercy’s own system of care.

How Mercy Health Foundation Oklahoma City Gives
Typical grants range from $50,531 at the 25th percentile to a median of $89,470, with a 75th percentile of $548,399. That spread reflects a mix of modest organizational support and very large capital gifts. The recent record shows repeat support to the same recipients across multiple years, especially Mercy Hospital Oklahoma City and Mercy Research, which points to recurring relationships rather than isolated one-time awards. The foundation is structured as a health-system affiliated foundation that makes organizational and mission-focused grants; it does not fund individuals. The active Mercy Sponsorships program accepts unsolicited applications during a February–March annual review, while the Oklahoma City community grants program is not open to unsolicited requests.
