A Letter from Russ

Dear Friends,

This year’s early Spring mirrors the kind of changes 2024 has already brought to Tender Mercies:

  • In January, thirty current residents of Tender Mercies packed their bags and moved across downtown to our newest building, Slater Hall, in Cincinnati’s historic West End.

  • In February, we began welcoming more people to the additional units of housing Slater Hall provided.

  • And in March, Ed Slater, one of Tender Mercies’ founders, helped to welcome over 100 donors, funders, volunteers and friends to the ceremonial ribbon cutting of Slater Hall.

To put it mildly: Tender Mercies is making important, sustainable progress towards our mission because of your previous support. We are creating housing during a major housing crisis, and we are adding jobs to Cincinnati through the services we provide.

We would never be here today without you. I encourage you to click here to meet two residents of Tender Mercies whose lives have been forever transformed by the security, dignity and community Tender Mercies has provided them.

The need for your support remains great. Over 1,000 people experience the brutality of homelessness each night in Hamilton County. Your support provides a caring home, dignified housing, and essential support services. Together, we create a foundation on which people rebuild their lives and achieve their highest level of independence.

Please, make a meaningful donation to Tender Mercies today.

Your support will make all the difference to those in need.

In Gratitude,

Russell Winters

CEO, Tender Mercies Inc.
