Get ready for World Polio Day | For World Polio Day on 24 October, we need everyone’s help to raise awareness about Rotary’s efforts to eradicate polio for good. Download the World Polio Day Toolkit for resources and tips to plan activities and promote a polio-free world.
Share social media posts from the toolkit with #EndPolio and #WorldPolioDay hashtags, create a fundraiser for Rotary’s PolioPlus Fund, or host a virtual or community event. Be sure to register your participation for World Polio Day to show how the Rotary community is taking action to end polio. Follow us @EndPolioNow for World Polio Day updates and to learn more about protecting children across the globe from this paralyzing disease. | |
