Rotary has been a key supporter in the fight against polio since the 1980’s. Along with other organizations such as the WHO and the Gates Foundation, billions of children have been vaccinated against this life altering disease. Unfortunately just recently a case was discovered in Malawi Africa after years of having the only cases being in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Also, just recently 6 health care workers, often women and mothers, were killed while attempting to administer vaccines and aid.Through PolioPlus we, as Rotarians, have supported clean water initiatives and sanitation efforts as preventative measures against this disease. The infrastructure created by years of this effort also aided in providing immunizations for COVID-19.
We are close but the need for help is still very much needed. All dollars raised are matched 2 to 1 by the Gates Foundation. Currently our club is looking for each and every donation of at least $25 for a drawing to be held at the end of the month for an Amazon Echo Dot. Just show Wendy that you have given or reach out if you do not know how to accomplish the donation. Thanks for all you do.
