It Libri GmbH It Takes More than a Roof: Mercy Housing’s Mission to Transform Lives Paperback

BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE.
In a time of social upheaval, stories that both inspire and challenge us to act have never been more essential. Today's housing crisis demands vision, courage, and models of hope.

In 1981, Mercy Housing, Inc. was born from that very conviction: that every person deserves a safe, decent home. What began with a handful of determined Sisters of Mercy and a simple idea-see the need, take action-has grown into one of the nation's leading providers of service-enriched affordable housing.

From its first 310 units to more than 48,000 households served today, Mercy Housing has proven the power of compassion put into motion. It Takes More than a Roof is the story of how a small seed of compassion, planted by courageous and creative women, grew into a movement that continues to transform lives across the United States. It is a testament to what's possible when vision, commitment, and collaboration meet real human need.

In the words of Sister Timothy Marie O'Roark, "We can do better than this."
