Rotary Club of Norwood

DO YOU KNOW WHAT WE’RE DOING IN YOUR COMMUNITY - AND AROUND THE WORLD?

Rotary is working to eliminate polio village by village, country by country, and continent by continent. As recently as 1988, polio was paralyzing nearly 1,000 children every day around the world. Since then, Rotary members have led the way in raising funds, advocating for government support, building awareness, and mobilizing volunteers on the ground for massive immunization campaigns. In the first half of 2015, there were fewer than 40 new polio cases worldwide. 

"We cannot wind down our efforts now. We need to continue immunizing until the last country is certified polio-free, and thereafter," says Dr. Tunji Funsho, chair of Rotary's Nigeria PolioPlus Committee. "As long as the virus remains anywhere in the world, it is only a plane ride away."

20% of every membership sold contributes to our fundraising to eliminate polio. Help us achieve our goal by sharing this link with your friends and family. Thanks for your support!


Books can be picked up or collected at the Norwood Rotary meeting, on Wednesdays in weeks 1, 3 and 4 of each month.  Alternatively Di will deliver to you, at no charge, if you email your address to diclements@hotmail.com.
