Parker Rotary Club Raises $10K for Earthquake Relief

The Rotary Club of Parker has a long-standing relationship with ShelterBox, an international organization that provides shelter-related supplies to locations that have suffered natural or human disasters. In response to the recent devastating earthquakes in Venezuela, the club sent $10,850 to ShelterBox to help them provide their boxes of supplies to people whose homes were destroyed or damaged. The funds came from

donations from individual club members
funds from the International Committee of the club
matching funds from the club's Foundation.

For even more information on this donation to support the work of ShelterBox, check out this great article in the Parker Chronicle!

Supporting by Sorting at Project CURE

One of the local organizations where we volunteer regularly is Project CURE, whose world headquarters is in Centennial. We help sort the donated medical supplies and then get the supplies into the right bin. Here is the crew from August 2026, having cleaned up our sorted items. No medical expertise needed! If this sounds like fun to you, check out Project CURE's volunteering page.

The Final Lamppost!

One of the projects we have worked on over the past year is installing solar lights around the Affinity Ranch property. Affinity Ranch is an equestrian therapy ranch just east of Parker. The final lamppost went in on June 26! Many thanks to THIS crew and to all the other crews that made these improvements.

Parker Days 2026

The Rotary Club of Parker had the fun of supporting our community by staffing one of the beverage tents at Parker Days. We were right by one of the stages and could dance along to the music!

$697 in cash and gift cards
41 pounds of chicken and 35 pounds of ground beef
67 pounds of butter and 63 packages of sliced cheese

11 packages of hot dogs
