About

As the largest employer in the Mahoning Valley, Mercy Health Youngstown is vital to our local economy. Through inpatient, outpatient, home health and palliative care services, among others, Mercy Health is delivering healthcare with state-of-the-art technology and through the hands and hearts of a dedicated, skilled workforce. The Mercy Health Foundation Mahoning Valley connects this level of care to those in our community who need it most. In any given year, over 50 projects are funded through the foundation, serving our community from the start of life to the end of life. 

 

The Sisters of the Humility of Mary opened the doors to St. Elizabeth Hospital Youngstown in December 1911. This first acute care facility was built on philanthropy, with the local community contributing over $100,000 to bring the healing ministry of the Sisters to the Valley. Now, over 100 years later, the tradition of philanthropy to bring life-saving care is still alive. Facilities and programming have transformed outcomes through the partnerships with our donors. It is with gratitude and inspiration that we continue to partner with donors like you--to provide resources and life-saving services to everyone in the Mahoning Valley, regardless of their ability to pay.
