Honolulu Sunrise Starts The Year At Voyager School

Start with 21 Rotarians and friends. Add 15 Voyager staff and parents. Sprinkle in 11 enthusiastic parents and volunteers through Keiki O Ka Aina. And what do you get? An amazing transformation!



On July 2, the Rotary Club of Honolulu Sunrise spearheaded an ambitious painting project for Voyager Public Charter School in Kakaako. The school is in the process of moving to its new location, and the Sunrise painting crew slipped in after the construction and before the carpet rolled in. The most difficult room was downstairs in which our Sunrise Painting Co. raised the white of the walls another two feet, repaired damaged walls and gave the room a whole new look.



Volunteers also powered through five other large classrooms, prepping and painting.



This year, the project also started a new Sunrise initiative: the Honolulu Sunrise Circle of Giving. It's an opportunity for our club to stay in contact with organizations we've helped, and for those organizations to give back--and give forward--to the other organizations that we assist, thereby creating a community of benefactors and givers. We look forward to our next project and hope to see Voyager members, as well others we've helped come and lend a hand.



Mahalo to all the hard workers who made a HUGE difference for this dynamic public school. Your efforts are greatly appreciated.
