The Rotary Club of Sunnyvale Supports The Rotary Foundation.
When you join the Rotary Club of Sunnyvale, you also become a member of Rotary International. Rotary International has 35,000 Rotary Clubs in 200 countries around the world, and you are welcome wherever you travel in the world.
A major way we support Rotary International is by donating to The Rotary Foundation.
There are many foundations that we support There are many foundations that we support. For example: our schools, Girl and Boy Scouts, and the American Red Cross. However, none of these will match your donation. The Rotary Foundation (TRF) does. TRF has been named the 2016 outstanding foundation by the Association of Fundraising Professionals (APF).
Sunnyvale Rotarians have participated in humanitarian projects, around the world, which are all funded by our contributions to The Rotary Foundation.
Some examples of humanitarian projects are: Water Projects, Polio Eradication, Wheelchair Deliveries, Medical Equipment, Education, and Disease Prevention.
