Oct 24 - World Polio Day Join the Celebration
Now’s the time to start planning your World Polio Day event. Spread the word in your community about the ongoing fight to end polio. Together, we can — and will — make history by ending polio for good. You can join our global celebration in many ways:
1) Hold a fundraiser. Consider making
virtual reality a part of it so people can see what it’s like to vaccinate a child against polio.
2) Educate your neighbors. Talk with friends, family, and colleagues about Rotary’s work to end polio.
3) Hold a viewing party. Watch the livestream of Rotary’s World Polio Day event as a club or with another Rotary or Rotaract club.
4) Light up your city.
Illuminate a local landmark with the End Polio Now logo.
