About Mercy Housing
Mercy Housing Inc centers its grantmaking on affordable housing itself: the foundation’s recent awards are largely directed to Mercy Housing regional affiliates and project entities that develop and operate low-income housing. The largest recent grant in the data went to Mercy Housing Northwest for $3,081,250 in 2025, followed by $1,928,679 to Mercy Housing California in 2024. That pattern shows a funder that uses capital to support housing portfolios rather than a broad mix of unrelated charities. Recent grants also include Mercy Housing Mountain Plains, Mercy Housing Southeast, Mercy Housing Lakefront, and Mercy Housing Washington affiliates, alongside project-specific entities such as West 28th Street Lp and Decatur Place. The named recipients point to a housing system with multiple operating regions and property-level organizations under the Mercy Housing umbrella. Across the recent grants list, the foundation’s work is tied to low-income housing and to the organization’s broader mission of creating stable, vibrant, and healthy communities for families, seniors, and people with special needs who lack the resources to access quality, safe housing opportunities.
What Mercy Housing Funds
The clearest theme in Mercy Housing Inc’s grantmaking is affordable housing development and preservation. In 2025, it awarded $925,385 to Mercy Housing Mountain Plains for low-income housing, and in 2024 it gave $365,825 to Mercy Housing Lakefront for the same purpose. Project-level recipients also appear in the recent grants list, including $367,997 to West 28th Street Lp and $332,220 to Decatur Place, both categorized as low-income housing. Supportive housing for residents is visible in the funder’s operating model as well, with grants to Mercy Housing affiliates that serve low-income households and economically vulnerable renters. The recent record also shows financing tied to community development entities such as Mercy Community Capital, which received $112,500 in 2025. Together, these awards indicate a focus on housing production, property support, and resident-serving infrastructure rather than a single issue area.
How Mercy Housing Gives
Mercy Housing Inc’s typical grant size is moderate to project-scale: the 25th percentile is $34,908, the median is $99,950, and the 75th percentile is $303,255. The recent grants list shows repeated support to the same recipients across multiple years, including Mercy Housing Northwest, Mercy Housing California, Mercy Housing Mountain Plains, Mercy Housing Lakefront, and 111th and Wentworth Apartments Corp. That pattern suggests ongoing, multi-year funding relationships rather than one-off gifts. The organization also makes program-related investments, which fits a capital-oriented housing finance structure. An active Request for Proposals for an Energy Feasibility Study shows that it accepts unsolicited proposals for that program.
