Birmingham Sunrise Rotary Club

The Birmingham Sunrise Rotary club meets every Tuesday morning at 7:00 for breakfast (virtually or in person, depending on what’s going on in the world). We also enjoy shaking things up a bit with sundowners at various local establishments.

Like Rotary clubs around the world, we are devoted to the eradication of polio, the provision of clean water, and caring for the welfare and education of children. Locally, the Birmingham Sunrise Rotary Club is also actively involved in the greening of Birmingham. We enjoy contributing our time, muscles, and resources to the creation of green spaces, walking trails, and parks that serve the people of Birmingham. Join us!

Signature Project

The Sunrise Plaza on the Jones Valley Greenway Project

As part of our local mission to be an integral part of the greening of Birmingham, the Birmingham Sunrise Rotary Club has joined forces with the Freshwater Land Trust and the landscape architects of Goodwin Mills Cawood to help develop the next extension of the Jones Valley Greenway. By the time the World Games come to town in 2022, there will be a beautiful pedestrian boulevard that connects the Lakeview area with Avondale. And, as you walk along you will be able to rest your legs at a scenic spot along the trail – the Sunrise Pavilion. READ MORE

The Impact of Rotary

Providing Clean Water

Rotary challenges us to develop sustainable water, sanitation, and hygiene solutions in countries the world over. Our own club has helped with a number of water purification projects in Ecuador.

Ending Polio

Rotary clubs the world over have played a key role in bringing the world to the brink of polio eradication. Our collective efforts have not only ended polio in 122 countries but also created a system for tackling myriad other health priorities.
