Many people have never heard of polio, but a generation or two ago, polio was known and feared by people all over the world. Polio is a devastating disease that affects children and has no cure, but can be prevented with a vaccine. Since 1988, Rotary has been instrumental in working towards the eradication of polio and has helped reduce the number of cases in the world by 99.9%. However, until we end polio completely, every child is at risk. This year, we are not only raising funds to help local organizations, but also working to eradicate polio in the world. By sponsoring us, you become part of the solution. Thank you.
