welcome

Today, Merrick Community Services stands as one of the oldest nonprofit agencies in Ramsey County, with a history of assisting individuals and families transition from poverty and become self-sufficient and stable.  The core programs of MCS are Nutritional and Independence Services (comprised of the Food Shelves and MOW/Senior Services) and Employment, Family and Youth Services.

Watch a Replay of the 7th Annual Merrick Momentum Breakfast  (Held Virtually). Moderated by Executive Director Dan Rodriguez and incoming Board Chair Ruth Anderson,  hear from Merrick’s program managers about their work and impact on our communities. As we  celebrate this year’s accomplishments and raise $60,000 for our programs.

All donations received between now and June 30th will be generously matched by the Richard M. Schulze Family Foundation.
