Welcome to the Branchburg Rotary Club!

The ninth year of Misión Alegría in Barrancabermeja, Colombia, was a resounding success, marked by the completion of 63 cleft lip and palate surgeries over a five-day medical campaign. This remarkable achievement was made possible through the collaborative efforts of nurses, surgeons, students, and Rotarians, all united in their mission to bring smiles to the faces of children in need.

 

The initiative was conducted in collaboration with the Rotary Club of Barrancabermeja, the Colombian Red Cross, and the Alegria Foundation, a California-based 501(c)(3) organization.

 

The combined dedication and hard work have transformed lives and brought hope to countless families across the Colombian Magdalena River Region.

This initiative honors local heroes by displaying American flags in their honor, creating a powerful visual tribute to their courage and dedication. This initiative allows community members to sponsor a flag in recognition of a hero, whether a veteran, first responder, teacher, or any individual who has made a significant impact. The display serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and contributions made by these heroes, fostering a sense of unity and gratitude within the community.

This event offers families and children a unique opportunity to explore various vehicles, from fire trucks and police cars to construction and utility vehicles. This hands-on experience allows attendees to learn about the functions and operations of these impressive machines, fostering curiosity and excitement. The event also includes activities, food, and entertainment, making it a fun and educational outing for the whole community.

The Branchburg Rotary Club actively engages in the Sunday Church program by providing vital food supplies to the citizens of Bound Brook, NJ, through the Presbyterian Church. Each week, Rotarians work tirelessly to support 150 families, ensuring they receive the nourishment they need. This commitment highlights the club's dedication to community service and their ongoing efforts to combat hunger locally.
