In recognition of contribution with generosity and commitment, the San Diego Downtown Breakfast Rotary Foundation and the San Diego Downtown Breakfast Rotary Club send a very special “Thank you” to our major sponsors:

Captain Sponsor

Over the last four months, the San Diego Downtown Breakfast Rotary Club has donated more than $33,000 to local community organizations serving the needs of seniors, abused children, veterans, the homeless, disadvantaged youth and pets.

Most recently, the club donated $5,000 in seed money for a scholarship fund for disadvantaged youth to participate in the Midway Aircraft Carrier Museum’s Live and Learn overnight education program.

The Downtown Breakfast Rotary Club Foundation has also pledged an additional $10,000 supporting international aid to the survivors and communities that were involved in the Indonesian tsunami disaster.

Other organizations receiving club donations were:

San Diego Humane Society
Alpha Project
Child Abuse Prevention Fund
Star Pal
Monarch School
Children of the Californias
USO Council of San Diego
Deafness Research Foundation
Senior Community Center
Doctors Offering Charitable Services
Vietnam Veterans of San Diego
San Diego Volunteer Lawyer Program
San Diego Friends of Parks and Recreation Foundation

In addition to funds, members of the Downtown Breakfast Rotary Club donated community service hours to many of the same organizations. The Downtown Breakfast Rotary Foundation also provides assistance to other organizations and Rotary clubs around the world.

Thank you for your generous support of the San Diego Downtown Breakfast Rotary Club.
