Mercy Housing is a national nonprofit organization providing affordable housing and resident services, and operates over 60 apartment buildings in San Francisco. Every year, Mercy Housing partners with local agencies to provide holiday gifts for our residents ages 0-12, and this year they are hoping to provide gifts to teens, ages 13-17.
This Advent Season, St. Mary’s is partnering with Mercy Housing to help provide gifts for thirty-five teens, ages 13-17. The suggested price range of gifts is $25-$40. Ideas for gifts include: board games, art supplies, local sports gear, small crossbody/belt bag, headphones/earbuds, cozy throw blanket, gift card to ‘Round1’ - Bowling and Arcade. Unwrapped gifts can be left in the designated boxes in the narthex. The deadline to bring gifts is Sunday, December 13th.
