Greetings from the San-Lee Sunrise Rotary Club
The San-Lee Sunrise Rotary Club is the youngest of three Rotary clubs in one of the smallest counties in North Carolina. That just shows you that Rotary service runs deep in our community. Our club has a history of service that goes back to it’s founding in 1995 and has a deep commitment to serving people in the Lee County community and throughout the world. Our members are a group that likes to get their hands dirty in doing good work for others. While our club raises and distributes substantial dollars for worthy causes during the year, you’re just as likely to see our members building cabinets for a local home for the disabled, donating blood, ringing Salvation Army bells, serving meals at a local Bread Basket or speaking out to raise awareness on a variety of activities and social issues. |
