Sunrise Rotary Member Assistance Fund

The Estes Valley Sunrise Rotary Club establishes the Sunrise Rotary Member Assistance Fund to provide temporary, confidential financial support to members in good standing who are experiencing
financial hardship that jeopardizes paying dues for their continued membership. 

This Fund serves two related goals:
• Membership retention — ensuring that a member’s temporary financial difficulty does not become
the reason they leave the Club.
• Fellowship and mutual support —reflecting Rotary’s core value of “Service Above Self” by allowing members to support one another indirectly.
