Service
Service Projects
Part of what we do as Rotarians is partner with local nonprofits and volunteer our time and intentionality. Service Above Self is one of the many commonalities in our club.
Partnership
Along with volunteering our time, every 3 years we choose a local nonprofit to award a grant to. This monetary gift allows to to partner in a deeper, more impactful way.
"Anytime a group of Sunrisers are together, either at a meeting, a social event, a service project, or just getting together, before going our separate ways we spend time talking about family and about Rotary. It happens every time we see one another. There is a genuine concern for one another."
- Ron Weis, member since 2004
