Burbank Sunrise was in the house for the 2026 Humanitarian Trip in Costa Rica! We painted, planted, built desks & chairs, repaired desks, beautified parks, installed fencing, and distributed backpacks and school supplies. Mostly we shared fellowship with each other and Rotarians from over 30 clubs who attended and Rotarians from District 4240 in Costa Rica. We danced, laughed, zip lined, rode ATVs, did a crocodile safari, visited a rainforest, had amazing dinners, and had a great time doing it!

























While some of the club was in Costa Rica, the rest of the club put on our 5th annual Young at Heart show for 150 seniors at Joselyn Adult Center. With a country theme, it was a boot stomping good time! With the talents of Rat Pack Ricky channeling Johnny Cash, comedian Mary Gallagher, and our very own Valentine Singers, we put the fun on center stage delighting the crowd! There were special ticket prizes and surprise roses and polio dogs handed out as well as a goody bag for every attendee!













The Burbank Sunrise Interact Club at John Burroughs High created 12 Birthday Kits that Home Again LA staff will use to celebrate the children living in their shelter. Every child deserves to feel seen, celebrated, and special on their birthday, no matter their living situation. Because of these amazing young people, these children will experience joy, laughter, and a moment that feels just for them. Congratulations on a wonderful project!

Join us for this important fundraiser supporting scholarships for area High School Seniors!!
