POLIO CHALLENGE - END POLIO NOW
|
|  | Since 1985, ending polio has been Rotary’s top philanthropic goal. Since then, polio cases have been slashed by 99 percent worldwide. While most of the world is polio-free, this vaccine-preventable disease still threatens children in parts of Africa and South Asia.

On November 26th, 2007 the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation gave The Rotary Foundation a grant of US$100 million for Rotary’s Polio Plus Program. Rotary’s challenge over the next 3 years is to match this figure in fundraising. Rotary’s US$100 Million Challenge is a continuation of Rotary’s longstanding commitment to protect every child from this devastating disease.
