Reflections at Sunday Night Live 2026

There’s something special about Sunday Night Live. Every fall, Kansas City comes together for an unforgettable evening filled with great food, live entertainment, laughter, unexpected surprises and, most importantly, generosity.

This year, we’re inviting you to reflect.

On Sunday, October 11, 2026, Kansas City Hospice & Palliative Care invites you to join us at Reflections: Sunday Night Live, our signature fundraiser supporting expert care and grief support for people and families throughout Kansas City.

So, what makes Sunday Night Live so special?

It’s a night worth remembering.
From interactive entertainment and larger-than-life games to music, surprises, and plenty of opportunities to have fun, Sunday Night Live is anything but an ordinary fundraiser.

Come hungry.
Kansas City’s Power & Light District restaurants will serve up an incredible variety of bites and treats, giving you plenty of reasons to sample, savor, and come back for more.

There’s always something to win.
Raffle packages and auction items offer the chance to bid on unforgettable experiences, travel, dining, sports, and more — and a variety of games guarantee you walk away with a prize — all while supporting an important cause!

And there’s something bigger behind it all.
Every ticket, bid, raffle entry, and sponsorship helps Kansas City Hospice & Palliative Care provide comfort, dignity, guidance, and hope to people facing serious illness and grief.

A theme that means something

Reflections is more than a clever theme. It’s a chance to look at where we’ve been, celebrate where we are, and imagine what’s possible for the future.

When we reflect on the work of Kansas City Hospice, we see the patients and families who have trusted us during some of life’s most difficult moments. We see nurses, physicians, chaplains, social workers, CNAs, and volunteers who show up with compassion, skill, and heart. And we see a community that believes no one should have to face serious illness, end of life, or grief alone.

We also see a legacy that stretches back decades. Thousands of Kansas City families have been supported because generous people believed this work mattered.

And when we reflect on the impact of that generosity, we see something remarkable: What we do together matters. Every gift helps create moments of comfort. Every act of support helps provide peace of mind. Every person who shows up helps make compassionate care possible for someone who needs it.

That’s what makes Sunday Night Live more than a party. It’s a reflection of Kansas City at its best.

So come raise a glass. Try something delicious. Laugh, play, and maybe win something amazing. Most of all, come celebrate the people, the history and the impact that make Kansas City Hospice & Palliative Care what it is today.

Because when we hold up that mirror, we hope you’ll see yourself, too. Someone who believes how we care for one another matters.

Join us for Reflections: Sunday Night Live, from 5 to 8 pm on Sunday, October 11, at KC Live!

We can’t wait to reflect, celebrate and have a little fun with you on October 11!

A special thank you to this year's sponsors!
