About

Mount Mercy University holds one of the rarest gems in all of Linn County: The Penthouse. As the campus and county's highest viewpoint, the Penthouse is the ideal location for student, alumni and community events.

But "ideal" isn't the word that comes to mind when looking at its current state. Untouched for years, the Penthouse is in dire need of a makeover. That's where Mustang alumni, parents and friends like you come in.

Student Government Association (SGA) has raised $45,000 for Penthouse renovations. With your help, Mount Mercy's Office of Development and Alumni Relations, Alumni Board and Young Alumni Council aim to match SGA's funds. If we meet this goal, we'll use funds to replace windows and furniture, add HVAC, remodel the kitchen and more!

We have until 12:00 p.m. CST on Friday, May 13 to meet our goal. Please join us in polishing MMU and Linn County's gem--the Penthouse--by giving today!
