Our Mission in Action

Powering Independence

At Sunnyhill, our mission is to empower individuals diagnosed with developmental disabilities to live full, meaningful lives rooted in choice, independence, and community connection.

This year, that mission comes to life in a very tangible way.

100% of the funds raised at March Matchness support the installation of backup generators at Sunnyhill’s Independent Living Campus in DeSoto, MO, helping keep residents safe, connected, and supported during power outages and severe weather.

Every Dollar Makes an Impact

When you attend March Matchness, your support goes exactly where you expect it to.

  • Every ticket.

  • Every sponsorship.

  • Every donation.

➡️ 100% of proceeds fund the Powering Independence Project at Sunnyhill’s Independent Living Campus in DeSoto, MO.
