giving for good sioux falls
In partnership with supporters across the Sioux Falls region, we are pioneering life-saving medical research and enhancing care for patients at every age and every stage of life. We do this through philanthropy-funded services like Child Life, nurse navigators for cancer patients, new 3D mammography technology and survivorship programs. We also are helping kids experience the healing power of play and therapeutic benefits of the outdoors through the Billion Pavilion, a new outdoor play area for pediatric patients and their families.
Last year, we put $12.8 million in philanthropic gifts to work across the Sioux Falls region. Read more in the 2024 annual report.

Leadership Connection
A region update from Andy Munce, president & CEO of Sanford Sioux Falls.
July 31, 2025
Growing up in Sioux Falls, I always wanted to pursue a career in health care. In college at SDSU, I started off as a pharmacy major — following in my dad’s footsteps — before the chance to work directly with patients sparked my interest in nursing. From my first position with Sanford in 2004 as an RN supporting general surgical, post-operative heart and vascular patients, to my current role as CEO for the Sioux Falls region, I’ve always felt proud and grateful to serve an organization that’s so deeply committed to the communities it serves.
Here, our mission to care, comfort and cure extends far beyond the walls of our hospitals, clinics and facilities to touch the lives of people across our region, including those who live in rural areas where many face unique challenges that impact their health and well-being. As the nation’s largest nonprofit rural health care system, our work is only possible thanks to donors like you whose generosity fuels our efforts every day.
Thank you, as always, for your friendship, your partnership and your desire to make a difference — your support means the world.
