The Thomas P. O'Sullivan Foundation
The Thomas P. O'Sullivan IV Foundation was established in 2008 by family and friends to honor a special man, whose life was a beneficial presence.
Tom O'Sullivan was 50 years old when he died of colon cancer on June 23, 2007, just four months after diagnosis. A Kansas City native, he was the first-born of a large Irish Catholic family and was a local dentist for 25 years. His passing left a huge void in the lives of all who knew and loved him.
It is a wonderful gift to have someone in your life whose company you treasure simply because they inspire you to be a better person. Sometimes it is their impeccable integrity, their compassion or open-mindedness or perhaps just their willingness to give advice in a gentle and genuine manner with just the right dose of humor.
In March 2009, the Thomas P. O'Sullivan IV Foundation (TPO IV) became a tax-exempt entity recognized under IRS section 501(c)(3) as recognized by the Internal Revenue Service. Contributions are tax deductible. Corporate contributions may be accepted.
