They operate two campuses – one on Johns Island that serves residents of Johns, James, and Wadmalaw Islands, West Ashley (inside 526), Adams Run, Meggett, Ravenel, Hollywood, Edisto Island – and the other in the Eastside Community of downtown Charleston that serves residents of downtown Charleston and West Ashley (outside 526). They were founded by the Sisters of Charity of Our Lady of Mercy in 1989.
The mission of Our Lady of Mercy Community Outreach is to build equitable communities and empower individuals to reach their full potential by providing basic and emergency needs, education, employment and health services.
