About

About Us

Sunrise is a registered charity founded in 1991 by a group of recent high school graduates who saw the need for equitable recreational opportunities for their peers with disabilities.

​

Since then Sunrise has grown and evolved to provide exceptional services for youth and adults with disabilities in the GTA.
