Proceeds from the sales of the Canada Flag Lawn Signs will directly support the many charitable initiatives and community projects championed by the Rotary Club of Niagara Falls Sunrise. Every dollar raised helps make a meaningful impact in our local and global communities. Funds will go toward vital programs such as Project Share, which provides emergency food and support services to families in need, and Start Me Up Niagara, offering outreach and housing stability support to vulnerable individuals. The Rotary Club of Niagara Falls Sunrise also supports RAFT, which helps at-risk youth with shelter, resources, and mentorship, and Pathstone Mental Health, dedicated to providing mental health services for children across Niagara. Additional contributions benefit SchoolBOX, an international organization building schools and providing supplies in Nicaragua, and ShelterBox Canada, which delivers emergency shelter and aid to families affected by disaster and conflict around the world. By purchasing a Canada Flag Lawn Sign, you're not only showing your national pride—you’re helping change lives in your own backyard and beyond.
What we are up to!
Niagara Falls Innovation Hub
Three Niagara Falls Service Clubs have contributed to a School program initiated by the Niagara Falls Innovation Hub.  
The Niagara Falls Lions Club, together with both the Rotary Clubs of Niagara Falls are assisting the Hub to present an innovative educational program to local grade 8 students.  Each week a different class of students arrive at the center to participate in planning a business scenario under the guidance of the experts at the Hub.  Teams of students create a product, plan a business budget and market it using their initiative and the Hub's equipment.
 
The three service clubs have come together to assist this program by sponsoring some of the cost of busing to and from their school. Over the year the Hub will have a school group every Wednesday. 
 
As a nonprofit organization, the Hub is principally supported by the City of Niagara Falls, with the mission to promote and empower individuals who are, or who aspire to become entrepreneurs. This school program will have a ROI to enlighten youth to become future entrepreneurs.  By supporting this, the Service Clubs of Niagara Falls will be making a difference now and in the future.

Coldest Night of Year 2025
Food Insecurity has become a major issue in communities across Canada and Niagara Falls is no different. The number of families in need are growing and the ability to assist them is not keeping up to this need. Project Share needed our contribution to make the difference! The Rotary Club of Niagara Falls Sunrise set a goal to donate $2,000 and exceeded it by 151%... to $3,059. 
 
The “Walkers” really did suffer the cold.  Thank you President Tawnya, Kairi, David, Scarlett and Troy for joining hundreds of fellow community members that recognize the community need.
 
Should also mention Joycee, Don, Scott, Carrie, BJ, Allister, Emily, Christine and many others that donated to the team success.
 
We are Rotary!
President Scott Wright was very pleased to pass the Gavel over to the 2024-25 President Tawnya Hartford. befoChangere he did so he thanked all Board of Directors and Committee chairs for the extra effort they put into creating a very successful year.  To demonstrate that, he listed all the community organizations and projects we supported over the past year.
