VeriFee and Sunrise Children's Services Launch "Reduce for a Cause" in Kentucky

Kentucky businesses can review their card processing fees at no upfront cost. When they save, VeriFee makes a gift to Sunrise.

(Union, Ky.) - VeriFee, an AI-enabled service that reviews business card processing fees, and Sunrise Children's Services, a Kentucky nonprofit caring for Kentucky kids since 1869, have announced Reduce for a Cause, a pilot program that connects the cost of doing business with the work of caring for children.

Here is how it works. A Kentucky business shares processing statements from every location. VeriFee reviews them for hidden fees. When a participating business saves, VeriFee makes a gift to Sunrise. The statement review is free, there is no upfront cost, and businesses do not have to switch processors.

"Most business owners never look closely at what they pay to process cards," said Jason Milburn, Managing Partner of VeriFee. "We built Reduce for a Cause so a simple look at a statement can also do some good for Kentucky kids. We're starting in Kentucky because this is my home and my community, and VeriFee is passionate about helping families here in the Commonwealth."

"Kentucky's kids and families need a community that shows up for them," said Dale Suttles, President of Sunrise Children's Services. "We are grateful to VeriFee and to every Kentucky business that chooses to take part."

Today, Sunrise offers foster care, adoption, family services, and independent living support for young adults aging out of care. According to Sunrise's 2025 Annual Report, the organization has supported 724 adoptions since 2006 and 33 adoptions in fiscal year 2025.

Reduce for a Cause begins in Kentucky as a pilot.
