Welcome to the Rotary Club of Boca Raton Sunrise Web site.  Look around our site and see how "The Future of Rotary Is In Your Hands".

On May 25, 1985, the Club, Orignally known as the Rotary Club of Boca West was created as an off-shoot of the Rotary Club of Boca Raton. The 25 charter members soon grew to over 50 members reflected in today's directory.

In Rotary, we recognize March as Literacy Month. This is when we focus on the importance of literacy and education in our humanitarian service. In my decades as a Rotarian, both at home in Alabama, USA, and abroad, I have seen again and again what a critical role literacy plays in a healthy and productive life. Being literate does not just mean having the ability to read a book or a newspaper. Being literate means being able to comprehend the instructions on a medicine bottle, a set of directions, or a job posting. It means understanding the note written by a child’s teacher. It means being able to use a computer, follow a recipe, or apply for a mortgage. Literacy means being part of the larger society. It means inclusion, and it means empowerment - Glenn E. Estess Sr., Foundation Trustee Chair 2010.  To read more about what Past RI President Estess has to say about literacy, go to the RI web site.
