Who are We?

Our Mission

The Justine Merceron Foundation is a private non-profit organization that aids students in achieving their academic and educational goals.

Our Background

Justine Merceron was a radiant, inspirational, loving, and caring daughter, sister, mother, wife, and friend who placed the needs of others above herself. Her selfless and compassionate personality allowed her to touch the lives of anyone she came in contact with, including her patients. Although she is no longer with us, we continue to champion her values and efforts and honor her legacy through this foundation.

Justine Merceron was a major advocate for education. She not only received her degree in respiratory therapy but, as a mother of three children, strove to instill in them the importance and benefits of an education. She provided her children opportunities to excel, not only within academia but also with their overall growth and development as students and as leaders. Additionally, Justine sought to play an active role in her children’s education by assisting teachers and administrators in various projects and activities and volunteering with the church and school. Ultimately, her goal was to allow her children to flourish as students and grow into confident and successful professionals.

What is our Purpose?

The ultimate goal of the Justine Merceron Foundation is to uphold and continue the passion for education that Justine instilled in her children. By offering our assistance to students, we strive to help them achieve their academic goals in pursuit of success. Justine catalyzed her children’s appreciation for educational opportunities, and we are proud to carry on her legacy by extending this same opportunity to many more students.

We recognize the significance of education in promoting personal growth and transforming communities. Justine’s unwavering belief in the power of education is an inspiration to us all. We aspire to be trailblazers like her as we elevate and support education for as many students as possible, starting with those in need. We are committed to building a brighter future by providing a solid foundation for learning for each student who is a recipient of our assistance.
