K Valley Cycle Day

President Lynda Burch

Rotary is a global network of clubs totaling 1.4 million members. Tauranga Sunrise is a strong and vibrant club of around 60 members. We are a diverse group of like-minded professionals who engage in projects that make a difference in our communities locally and internationally.

Our club’s international projects focus in the Pacific region with support for Vanuatu schools and communities. Local projects include youth development, environmental and community support.

Join us to meet the sunrise on a Friday morning, enjoy great speakers, the fellowship of other members and to get involved in club activities.

Please get in touch to arrange a visit one Friday morning.

Threads Across the Pacific

The communities we support in Vanuatu have been devastated by the many severe weather events that have hit Vanuatu over the last few years. This project is designed to strengthen these communities through providing sewing machines, fabric and materials to groups of women in five areas across Vanuatu. These women are earning a living sewing clothes for their families, and making items for the people on the many cruise ships that visit the area.

Preventing Pollution of Te Awanui-Tauranga harbour by stormwater

The Rotary Club of Tauranga Sunrise Environment Committee would like to invite you to mark the first milestone of our project to raise awareness of pollution of Te Awanui-Tauranga harbour by stormwater.

Tuesday 14^th December at 10.30.

Ngai Tamarawaho kaumatua Tamati Tata will bless a site on the Strand opposite Red Square, immediately before “drain socks” are fitted to two stormwater outlets.

Extensive promotion, we hope, will stimulate ‘copy-cat’ projects in the community.

Your presence will be part of this promotion!
