| Today, on World Polio Day, we celebrate how far we’ve come and renew our commitment to finishing the job. | Since Rotary pioneered the global fight to end polio in 1985, cases have fallen by 99.9%, saving more than 20 million children from paralysis. Ending polio remains our number one humanitarian goal. Our progress so far is one of the world's greatest public health achievements, and Rotary members have been at its heart. But our work isn’t done, and "almost" isn't close enough. Polio still exists in a few regions, and until it is gone everywhere, it remains a threat to children everywhere. Your continued support, through advocacy, fundraising, and awareness, ensures vaccines reach every last child. Together, we’ve changed the course of history. Together, we will end polio for good. |
