The Hygiene Closet Grant from Arvada Sunrise Rotary to Swanson Elementary School made a meaningful impact by addressing the essential hygiene needs of students. With this grant, over 300 toothbrushes, 100 tubes of toothpaste, 200 hair brushes, 100 bottles of shampoo/conditioner and an incredible 2,000 hair ties were provided to ensure students had access to the tools necessary for their personal care. This initiative not only promoted health and hygiene but also fostered confidence and dignity among the students, empowering them to thrive in their educational environment. It stands as a shining example of Rotary's dedication to supporting local communities and investing in the well-being of future generations.

Greetings from Whitehorse, Canada!
Sole Hope Update
The Arvada Sunrise Rotary Club's Sole Hope Grant united an inspiring group of over 150 volunteers, ranging in age from 6 to 104, in a remarkable hands-on international project that truly embodies compassion and collaboration. Together, they carefully cut over 7,500 pieces of upcycled denim in the United States, which were then sent to Uganda, where skilled tailors transformed them into over 630 pairs of shoes. These shoes, often the first ones these children have ever owned will protect their feet from painful, debilitating jigger infestations. Sole Hope Organization runs clinics for medical and education efforts in Jinga, Uganda by providing them with these life-changing shoes. This incredible initiative was made possible thanks to the collective efforts of Broomfield Crossing
Rotary, Five Points RiNo Rotary, and Arvada Rotary clubs demonstrating teamwork's power across generations to change lives. For more details about Sole Hope's mission and impact, visit
