Sun Lakes Rotary (Chartered April 22, 1986) is a leadership organization made up of men and women from local businesses, professional, education, civic and emerging leaders. We meet regularly, get to know each other, form friendships, and through that we’re able to get things done in our greater Sun Lakes community. Come join us and share our passion for community service and friendship.

We are neighbors, community leaders, and global citizens uniting for the common good. With you, we can accomplish even more. Our Club, like most local Rotary Clubs, has a diverse membership which includes men and women from a broad range of professions representing the greater Chandler area. We have about 90 dynamic members, including both retirees and those actively employed. We support a wide range of community and international needs and efforts, with emphasis on local education and children and students. But, we like to emphasize fun and fellowship amongst the members. We also have excellent speakers at our Club meetings! Come join us...
