About MERCY STREET INC

Mercy Street is a Dallas-based, faith-rooted nonprofit that partners with local churches to serve children and teens in West Dallas, South Dallas, and surrounding neighborhoods through mentoring, sports leagues, after-school programs, summer camp, and leadership development. The organization emphasizes one-to-one Christian mentorship, youth leadership training, and family-centered community work. In recent years Mercy Street has expanded its program footprint — including opening a Dream Center in 2025 to serve Dallas Housing Authority residents’ children — and reports sustained program activity across mentoring, sports (more than 1,200 athletes annually), and leadership pipeline initiatives. The organization maintains audited financials, files IRS Form 990s, and operates active community fundraising and volunteer channels for donor-facing support and participation.
