Dixie Sunrise Rotary is a member club
of Rotary International, a worldwide service organization with 1.1 million
members. Our club was founded in 1996
and has been active in the St. George Community ever since. Today we are
40 professional men and women who meet weekly in fellowship and perform local
service projects at least once a month.
On any given weekend, you can find Dixie Rotarians working on projects
such as road clean up, restoring Snow Canyon State Park or cooking dinner for
Switchpoint clients. We also have sponsored important international
service projects in Mexico, Costa Rica, Africa and Grenada.
Currently the Evening of Elegance is
our major fundraising event for the year. Over our 20 years of service we
have raised over $200,000.00 which has supported the St. George Police, Dixie
Regional Medical Center, the Washington County Search and Rescue and a variety
of other local charities. We know that many lives have been saved and
improved because of our efforts to support the St. George Community.
In 2016, we formed The Dixie Sunrise
Rotary Foundation, a 501-c-3 organization that allows us to expand our
fund-raising efforts and service. “The Rotary Foundation the mission is ‘To
advance world understanding, good will, and peace through the improvement of
health, the support of education and the alleviation of poverty’. This mission inspires us to serve the most
vulnerable populations in our community and abroad,” said Janet Haines, 2018
Foundation President. “We are proud to once
again sponsor the Evening of Elegance,” she adds.
