We contribute thousands of dollars annually to local and international charities, which we raise in various fund raising events such as our Annual Wine Tasting and Silent Auction gala and other events such as Give Our Regards to Broadway, a Westport/Weston celebration of the Big Apple.
Currently, our club is made up of over 60 men and women who either live or work in the Westport area and are incredibly driven with a desire to give back, not only to Westport & Weston, but to our neighbors in Norwalk, Bridgeport and beyond. Most recently our endeavors have taken us outside the boundaries of our country to nations such as Guatemala, Egypt, & Zimbabwe in our efforts to promote literacy, vocational training, and the discovery of potable water sources.
Welcome to our club. See what our club has to offer. There are links that will help explain what Rotary is all about, how to join our club, and much much more. WELCOME!

In the annual tradition of Rotary, the Sunrise Club changed over its
leadership on June 28th at the home of the outgoing President John
Branson. Many club members and spouses attended the event, which combined fellowship and ceremony. The new President John Hendrickson was sworn in along with his new Board of Directors.
