Rotary Sunrise

I’m a part of a Rotary Club in Kelowna. Rotarians are people of action. Our global network of more than 1.2 million neighbors, friends, and leaders volunteer their skills and resources to solve issues and address community needs. Solving real problems takes real commitment and vision. For more than 110 years, Rotary’s people of action have used their passion, energy, and intelligence to take action on sustainable projects. From literacy and peace to water and health, we are always working to better our world, and we stay committed to the end.

At the Rotary Club of Kelowna Sunrise, we serve the Kelowna community and beyond:

• Mission: The club consists of business, professional, and community leaders who volunteer and raise funds for local and international programs.
• Fundraising efforts: Key fundraisers have included the “Season of Giving Calendar” raffle, which has supported local charities like the Child & Youth Advocacy Centre of Kelowna and the Okanagan Youth Recovery House.
• Local community involvement: The club sponsors youth programs, such as the Rotary Youth Exchange and Interact and Rotaract clubs at local schools. It also supports recreational projects, civic beautification, and initiatives to combat hunger and health issues.
• International support: In addition to local projects, the club participates in international initiatives, such as building wells in developing nations.
