Kal, we will never tire of hearing your story, especially in the heartfelt way that you tell it. Such an amazing journey based on hope, hard work and happy Rotary connections. Thank you for sharing!
We're almost there! The table is set, the silent auction items are ready for viewing, the food is cooking and we're getting dressed in pink. What an amazing team! Thanks to the Auction Committee and to all the rotarians who worked diligently to make this event happen tonight! 



Congratulations, Bob, for your Paul Harris award and for the generous contributions you continue to make to Rotary. 

Great breakfast this morning! Thanks for the delicious pancakes, Chris, Bob, Elena, Debbie and co.

Thank you Danny, for bringing us the flags from Rotary Clubs in Thailand and Tokyo. 
Thanks to our rotarians who visit Gilmore Elementary every month to share a nutritious breakfast! 





What amazing work done through Richmond Cares Richmond Gives. Richmond Sunrise Rotary is proud to be a part of their support team. Thanks to Ed and Ava for their informative and inspirational presentation this morning. Ava, your angel pin project is awesome! See website at https://www.rcrg.org/
Congratulations to Marg Dixon on receiving yet another Paul Harris Award for her generous donations to Rotary. 
John Marquardt is the deserving recipient of this year's Dean Crain Award. Congratulations, John! 

A few years ago, we heard about this project - Inherit Your Rights. It was all about engaging Tanzanian women to ensure they knew their rights of inheritance following death or divorce of a partner. The program (supported in part with a D5040 District Grant) was highly successful.
The local Rotary club (RC of Arusha) is involved in this latest program which was targeted at women but more importantly was expanded to educate men and children in the wider aspects of Gender Equality.
Our club is rightly proud to have been instrumental in changing attitudes in this Tanzanian community!

Richmond Sunrise Rotary has been supporting the Binners' Project which operates in Vancouver's Downtown East Side. We are happy to report that funding has been approved. 

As we remember the dedication of Curtis Tablotney to Pathways Clubhouse, Richmond Sunrise Rotary presented Debbie with a cheque for $1000 for Pathways. 
In anticipation of Elena's trip to attend the dental mission in the Philippines, Richmond Sunrise Rotary presented her with a cheque for $2000 for the Caring Hearts Dentistry Society. Danny Salcedo will play a primary role in the mission. 
Our successful and generous efforts in fundraising and donations, including to Rotary Foundation, Polio Plus and Shelter Box, were acknowledged by District Governor Lorne Calder this week. Thank you, Lorne, for that recognition and for inspiring us to continue to do important Rotary work. 
We had such fun at the Richmond Sunrise Rotary Christmas lunch, prepared by Riverside Halls. The ugly sweaters were very ugly, but Larry surpassed us all! Merry Christmas!
