Featured Story
World Polio Day
On October 24, we observe World Polio Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness about polio and Rotary's critical role in eradicating this life-altering disease. For more than 30 years, Rotary has been at the forefront of the fight against polio, partnering with global health organizations to immunize billions of children worldwide.
Thanks to our collective efforts, we have reduced cases by 99.9%, but the mission isn't over yet. Until polio is eradicated everywhere, children remain at risk. On this day, we honor the incredible progress made and renew our commitment to the final push toward a polio-free world.
Let's take this opportunity to remind ourselves why this fight matters and how our club can continue supporting this life-saving work. Together, we can achieve Rotary's goal of ending polio for good.
