To find the cost \( c \) of sending a 12-pound package using the formula \( c = 2.01w + 14.29 \), we can substitute \( w = 12 \) into the equation.

Calculating:
\[
c = 2.01(12) + 14.29
\]
\[
c = 24.12 + 14.29
\]
\[
c = 38.41
\]

Therefore, the cost to send a 12-pound package overnight is **$38.41**.
