Thank you!

We started the 2018 Day of Giving with a goal of 700 donors in a 24-hour period. We are thrilled to announce that not only did we achieve that goal, we surpassed it by 73 gifts!  It is with the greatest of pride in the Mercer community, and with the utmost respect that we thank all alumni, parents, faculty, staff, friends and students for your generosity and support of #MUgiveback.
