Support Sally Kirkland's Urgent Medical Care

Our beloved friend, Sally Kirkland, has graced the stage and screen, inspiring audiences and lifting the spirits of countless many both in and out of the Hollywood community as an actress, teacher, and minister. A lifelong member of the Actors Studio over the last six decades she has starred in over 300 projects including "The Sting", "Private Benjamin", "EDtv", "Bruce Almighty", "The Haunted", "Best of The Best", "Revenge", "Coffee Date", "Roseanne", "JFK", "A Brave New World", "Anna", and is currently starring in the 2024 indie hit film "Sallywood".

Sally received a Best Actress Oscar nomination and won the Best Actress Golden Globe Award and Best Actress Independent Spirit Award in 1988 for her critically acclaimed performance in "Anna".

Her passion and dedication to her craft have not only helped to shape the industry but have also left a lasting impact on everyone fortunate enough to know her. And it is with this in mind that we share with you that Sally is in urgent need of our help.

In 2021 SAG-AFTRA cancelled the supplement insurance for members over the age of 65 that served as members Medigap coverage. The chaotic and confusing transition to another Medigap policy was marked with significant challenges leaving Sally with extensive out of pocket costs that have exceeded her savings and monthly pension income.

As a result today, she finds herself facing a significant health crisis—one that has not only affected her well-being but also requires urgent and quality medical care that she can no longer afford.

While Sally has had a successful career as a working actor, she came up in the business during a time that women made less than men.

In 2007 during the market crash Sally lost the bulk of her investments and the money she made during the peak of her career (1988 - 1998), which Celebrity Net Worth has never updated or corrected.

This past year Sally fractured her four bones in her neck, right wrist, and her left hip. While recovering she developed two separate life-threatening infections. The combination of these injuries and infections have required extensive hospitalizations and rehab beyond the 100 days insurance will cover.

As the days pass, lack of proper care greatly diminishes Sally’s chance of a full recovery. However, with the right medical support, we know she has a strong chance of overcoming this setback and returning to the work she loves.

For those of us putting together this campaign, Sally has been more than just a friend- she has been a maternal figure, offering encouragement, wisdom, and love when it was needed most. For those who know Sally personally, she has been a limitless source of generosity, kindness, and unwavering spirit. And while she has meant so much to so many around her, she has never had the luxury of a life partner or children to lean on in difficult times. But she has always prioritized being there for others, given everything she has to her craft, her church, her friends, and her community.

We are humbly asking for your support, in any amount you can offer, to ensure she gets the treatment she needs at this crucial time in her health journey. Every donation, no matter the size, will help bring her one step closer to recovery and, we hope, back to doing what she loves most—acting.

Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and consideration. Your support during this critical time could be the key to Sally regaining her health and her future.

With gratitude, hope and love,

Paige Dylan, Coty Galloway, Mel England
