CHICAGO - Loyola Chicago men's basketball is set to host their annual Misericordia Day when the Ramblers welcomes Goshen College to Gentile Arena on Saturday at 5 p.m. A group from Misericordia Heart of Mercy is expected to attend the game that afternoon.

Loyola, in particular the men's basketball program, and Misericordia have had a long-standing relationship in which Ramblers student-athletes volunteer their time performing a variety of activities for the service provider that cares for over 600 individuals challenged by mental and physical disabilities. 
 
Each fall, the Loyola men's basketball team assists with Misericordia Family Day, helping prepare food and set up for one of its biggest events of the year.
 
Misericordia Heart of Mercy's mission is to support children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities by providing the highest quality residential, training and employment services. Misericordia provides a full continuum of care to meet each person's changing needs and maximize his or her independence, self-determination, interpersonal relationships and engagement in the community.
