Welcome to the Buffalo Sunrise Rotary Club!

Hybrid meetings: Saturn Club, 977 Delaware Ave, Buffalo, NY
1st and 3rd Tuesdays/month @7:30 AM
4th week is reserved for Board/Committee meetings
We try to schedule in-person gatherings ("socials", "field trips", or "hands-on" projects) during the 2nd week.
Times and locations are subject to change; see "Events" for more information.
We are a collection of talented, diverse, and passionate women and men, with the unified goal of making our community -- locally and worldwide --  a better place for everyone. 

We offer our time, energy, and financial resources to various organizations and projects, such as cooking meals for the Kevin Guest House on the medical campus, sorting and packing food for FeedMore Western New York,  cleaning and maintaining our community’s valuable public spaces like the Niagara River - Greenway Trail and the Naval Park, and many more. 

We collect, repair and recycle bicycles (and occasionally, tricycles and scooters), passing them along to worthy groups serving individuals needing transportation.

We also support various international projects, supporting a global grant to train indigenous people to operate water treatment plants on their territory, and spearheading a global grant to support students studying Community Economic development at Oxford, and at Cambridge University.

We strongly believe in making not only Western New York, but the entire world, a better place to live.

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: Denis LeFebvre!
IN HIS OWN WORDS:
I have been a Rotarian for over four years now.  My initial contact in Rotary was with the most dedicated Rotarian in the entire district, Kevin Crosby (not just my opinion!!).   He introduced me to Buffalo Sunrise and it was an instant fit!  Since joining this diverse group of individuals I have had the privilege of being the President of our group and I am now an active member on our Board.

Meet Rotarian Denis Lefebvre
I currently work for a small local construction company in the Buffalo area.  I have been directly involved in many development projects in Uganda and I try and visit there at least once a year for a month or more to oversee the ongoing work.  I enjoy cycling and classic cars, and I spend an inordinate amount of time collecting Canadian coinage.  Rotary has introduced me to like-minded people who strive for social equality and are hands on in their pursuit of making a difference. Cheers
