A MESSAGE FROM Alan's Way of Giving Back
Hi, my name is Alan Mares-Green, a former Mercy Home resident and proud former scholar.
With the incredible support of Mercy Home, I was able to achieve both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Social Work. Today, I’m excited to share that I’m applying to a Doctorate program in (you guessed it!) social work. None of this would have been possible without the foundation, guidance, and scholarships provided by Mercy Home. Every milestone I’ve reached is a testament to their unwavering support, and I’m grateful for the chance to give back by helping raise funds so others can have the same opportunities.
I’m thrilled to be running in the 2025 Chicago Marathon to help Mercy Home continue making an impact. Please consider sharing this page with friends and family, and know that every contribution counts. Thank you for being part of this journey with me!
