The Holy House of Mercy of Santa Cruz das Flores, IPSS—Private Institution of Social Solidarity.

The Home is one of the Valences of the Holy House of Mercy of the Village of Santa Cruz das Flores. Mercy arose by the hand of António Vicente Peixoto Pimentel in 1876. Santa Casa plays a very important role in supporting the community, because in addition to the Home it also has the only Pharmacy on the island and the Home Support Units, Home Support Center, Care and Animation Center for People with Disabilities and the Family Care and Follow-up Center.

António Peixoto Pimentel (1827-1881), built the hospital that was inaugurated in 1878 and, when he died, left most of his assets to the institution he built and the desire for a home to be built, a wish realized only a century later, came into operation on October 6, 1994.

"While its field of action may transcend the areas of so-called Social Security, it will effectively continue, support for the family and the protection of children and old age, through the creation and maintenance of Homes, Day Centers, and Conviviality Centers, Crèches and Kindergartens and Home Support Service." —Statutes of the Holy House of Mercy of Santa Cruz das Flores on April 7, 1994
