What We Do

Mission statement: House of Mercy empowers people living with HIV/AIDS in their transformation toward a more independent life. 

House of Mercy Programs 

  • PALM Program- Provides short-term residential and supportive services to persons living with HIV/AIDS who are 18+ and unhoused. This program provides a person-centered care model emphasizing dignity in a discrimination and a stigma-free environment. 
  • Positive Connections Program- Delivers case management support to individuals living with HIV/AIDS in the broader community or clients leaving our in-resident PALM program. Clients are matched with a case manager as they continue their transition to living an independent life.

How you can help:

1. We accept donations of all kinds (monetary, food, hygiene items, etc). As a residential facility, we have many of the same needs as a typical household (paper products, hand sanitizer, disinfectant wipes, etc.) 

2. Volunteers are one of our greatest resources, helping advance our mission and improve lives. Our volunteers engage with clients, assist with cooking meals, or jump in to help with events where we spread awareness and conduct vital fundraising efforts. Call (704) 825-4711 ext. 6 to learn how to get involved.

 You can call (704) 825-4711 ext. 6 to schedule a drop-off or you can mail it to the PO box below!
