Dear Friends of Mercy,On behalf of the patients and their loved ones, the nearly 600 co-workers and physicians we say, “Thank you!” Your gift has touched the lives of so many and we are so grateful. Over the last year, you have supported your fellow neighbors and friends in such powerful ways. Here’s just a glimpse into the lives that you have touched…

• Patients receive transportation assistance and nutritional shakes at the Mercy Clinic Rolla – Oncology thanks to your gifts of support to Team Anita – Pay It Forward.

• Patients at the Curry Cancer Center now have a wide selection of magazines to read while receiving chemo.

• A Mercy Hospice patient received a cook stove just before Christmas to be able to enjoy one last Christmas dinner with his family thanks to your generous support of Janet’s Wish.

The list just goes on and on! Folks across Lebanon have truly been that beacon of light and hope for so many patients and their loved ones. Mercy’s foundress, Catherine McAuley said, “We should be shining lamps, giving light to all around us.”

Thank you for giving light to so many!

Recognizing Donors at Superhero Breakfast

Superheroes come in many shapes and sizes, but they all have one thing in common: contributing to the greater good. Walk around the Lebanon community and you’ll find many helping hands and giving hearts.

To celebrate their impact, Mercy Health Foundation Lebanon hosted its second annual Donor Recognition Breakfast on November 13, 2015. Honored guests included April McClure with Janet’s Wish, Travis Lynch with Team Anita—Pay it Forward, and Mercy co-workers.

“Our co-workers have increased their contributions significantly over the years and this year we have reached the $55,000 mark,” said Dave Steinmann, Mercy Hospital Lebanon administrator. Most recently, co-workers pledged to help with construction of the new Mercy Park in front of the hospital. “This is yet another example of how generous and dedicated they are to helping our Lebanon community. I’m very proud of our co-workers.”

In the spotlight this year were Travis Lynch, his friends and family, whose

fund—Team Anita—Pay It Forward—helps Mercy cancer patients in memory of Anita Lynch. Team Anita is now well into its second successful year. Friday morning, Travis and his family presented Mercy with a $15,300 check, the product of fundraisers over the last several months, all to benefit cancer patients in the Ozarks.

“The people of Mercy were there for us when we needed them,” said Travis. “They continue to help us care for community in Anita’s honor. We’re excited to move forward and build even more momentum with Team Anita.”

This little ladybug was a mascot at Janet’s Wish Ladybug Fest, which raised over $6,000 for people on hospice.
