Student Council Mission
Be part of the change!
This year our mission is to raise money that will be used to make education possible for girls and young women in Nairobi, Kenya. At Mercy High School we greatly value our education, and we want to ensure our sisters across the globe have the same educational opportunity. We will work in conjunction with the United Nations Working Group on Girls (WWG). The money raised will specifically help young women in the Mukuru neighborhood in Nairobi, Kenya. All proceeds will go towards classroom supplies, uniforms, sanitary supplies, and tuition. Around the world, there are 129 million girls out of school and our great hope is to greatly reduce that number in Nairobi.
Please help us fill the Pot of Gold this March to make a big impact. Use the Venmo link below or send a check to the school. Please indicate in the memo “Student Mission.” Thank you.

Mercy Theatre Presents
Radium Girls
APRIL 14-16
In 1926, radium was a miracle cure, Madame Curie an international celebrity, and luminous watches the latest rage—until the girls who painted them began to fall ill with a mysterious disease. Inspired by a true story, Radium Girls traces the efforts of Grace Fryer, a dial painter, as she fights for her day in court. Her chief adversary is her former employer, Arthur Roeder, an idealistic man who cannot bring himself to believe that the same element that shrinks tumors could have anything to do with the terrifying rash of illnesses among his employees. As the case goes on, however, Grace finds herself battling not just with the U.S. Radium Corporation, but with her own family and friends, who fear that her campaign for justice will backfire. Written with warmth and humor, Radium Girls is a fast-moving, highly theatrical ensemble piece. Called a "powerful" and "engrossing" drama by critics, Radium Girls offers a wry, unflinching look at the peculiarly American obsessions with health, wealth, and the commercialization of science.
