Burbank Sunrise has been hard at work supporting fire relief efforts. We helped sponsor a toiletry drive with Home Again LA and Tequilas Restaurant, donated toiletries, diapers, water, and Snacks to the Village Church and South Hills Church collection drive, donated gift cards for fire victims being housed by Home Again LA, and collected and delivered much needed items to the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Catholic Church in the fire zone in Pasadena. Today we unloaded a 24 foot U-Haul full of donations from the Folsom area Rotary Clubs in the rain and hail!! We get things done!!

Today we delivered toys to the Aviva Interim Supportive Housing for Women & Children, the last of the nonprofits we supported with a club toy drive! We were grateful to support these women and their children on the path out of homelessness and bring a smile to their faces.

This year Sunrise Rotarians collected toys for three different non profits. Last night we assisted Santa with toys for Home Again LA! Thank you to Tequilas for spearheading this event! Always fun to spend an evening with Santa!!

Sunrise Rotarians donated and delivered toys for the Kids Community Dental Clinic’s annual Santa Day. Always grateful to give Santa some help to insure children get something for Christmas!

Burbank Sunrise spent the morning with a few hundred Rotarians from District 5280 packaging meals for Rise Against Hunger. The assembly process combines rice, soy, dehydrated vegetables, and a micronutrient flavoring mix formulated by Kraft Heinz Company Foundation that includes 20 essential vitamins and minerals. The cost of each meal is typically 34 cents. The food has a shelf-life of two years. Rise Against Hunger provides over 70% of its meals to support development programs such as school lunch programs, vocational training programs, early childhood development programs, orphanages, and medical clinics. Working with these programs allow beneficiaries to break the cycle of poverty through education, skills development, and healthcare while also receiving needed nutrition. Truly the Magic of Rotary at work!
