The car show is the club's biggest fundraiser. The money raised on this day will allow the club to assist as many people in our community that need help. Some of the beneficiaries include BCR a Place to Grow, Salem Christian Homes for the Handicapped, the Roy and Patricia Disney Cancer Center, the Burbank Police Department, the Burbank Animal Shelter and Ronald McDonald House.
The club also supports and sponsors the Burbank Kiwanis Aktion Club, a service club for developmentally disabled adults.

Mayor's Cup Golf Tournament
The Burbank Sunrise Kiwanis Club will host its 15th annual Mayor's Cup Golf Tournament at the DeBell Golf Course on Friday, April 27. This fundraiser will provide much-needed funds that will enable the club to serve the community.
Among the many organizations that benefit from the Mayor's Cup are the Burbank Boys and Girls Club, Burbank Family Service Center, Burbank Police Youth Outreach Center, Outreach for Community Support of Underprivileged Children, Children's Hospital, Boy Scouts of America, Salvation Army, Bret Harte Elementary School and DeBell Junior Golf and First Tee.
The involvement with the youth in our community is a very important part of what the club accomplishes. It is more than just teaching them to play; it is also teaching them to become moral, caring human beings.
Club members are helping to raise the leaders of tomorrow.
