Building the Dream

North-facing rendering of Athletic and Student Life Center

Mercy High School, Burlingame launched the quiet phase of the Building the Dream campaign to build an Athletic and Student Life Center on campus. The campaign surpassed our first benchmark in December 2019 raising $2.5 million.

To continue to provide exceptional extracurriculars for our students, Mercy plans to build an Athletic and Student Life Center. It will secure our legacy of educating young women while enabling them to reach new heights beyond the classroom.

We look forward to building a space that will reflect the beauty of our historic ‘oak-clad acres’, and honor the deep sense of community of Mercy High School, Burlingame.
