SUNSET SOCIETY

LEAD THE WORK.
FUND ACCESS AT THE PACE OF NEED.

Sunset Society gifts remove the barriers that keep kids from clinically recommended care. Your dollars are deployed with urgency, discipline, and clear guardrails, so families move from waiting to healing.

YOUR GIFT ADVANCES OUR PRIORITIES

  • Scale individual medical grants to reach more children, faster.
  • Reduce days-to-care with provider access projects (capacity, navigation, on-site resources.)
  • Strengthen family navigation and rapid-response so care doesn’t stall.
  • Maintain simple, donor-friendly infrastructure that moves dollars quickly and safely.

With Gratitude

Our founding Sunset Society members have made annual gifts of $10,000 or more.

FOUNDERS LEGACY

Jeanne was in the driver’s seat from day one – hands on, practical, and unflinching about getting kids to care. We work every day to reflect her values: urgency, dignity, and doing the simple thing that helps a family now. The Sunset Society also honors Neal – his love of sunsets, his “one more round after sundown” spirit, and his conviction that we should leave the world better than we found it. This is where leadership gifts carry that spirit forward, turning generosity into access for kids who can’t wait.
