Initiatives and Goals
Merced Foundation was established with the intent to help people through transitional periods. The goal of the foundation is to add support during times of need and help people progress to a more positive place in their future.
While this encompasses many different areas of support previous funding awards include: further training or education to move into a new career or establish themselves after incarceration, support during times of sickness where families need additional help to care for each other and their loved ones, food banks and disaster relief for people needing to access the basic needs.
​
The foundation does not have specific limitations to who or what transitional people or groups they support but have previously focused on areas which include:​
​​
1. Education
3. Counselling and legal support
4. Medical and aftercare
6. Basic necessities
​
We are passionate about supporting people and projects that make a difference during a time of need, helping people to move on to their next chapter in life and hopefully creating opportunities for a better life for themselves and their families.
