Rotary launched the PolioPlus program in 1985 with a promise to children everywhere that one day, they won’t have to fear being paralyzed by polio. It has been a long and challenging endeavour to contain wild poliovirus to just two countries, Afghanistan and Pakistan. 

And as in any marathon, the final mile of polio eradication is the most challenging.

Help Rotary eradicate polio by making a donation in honour of World Polio Day. Your contribution will be tripled by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
