The PolioPlus program helps Rotary fund operational costs, such as transportation, vaccine delivery, social mobilization, and training of health workers, and support surveillance activities. Your donation can help "End Polio Now."
We would like you to schedule a 2-3 minute vocational talk. Share with members information about your profession, yourself and your family. Remember, we want to hear from our new members and our new members would like to learn more about the professions of their fellow Rotarians so please schedule a vocational talk. Contact Vickie Backman to schedule a date for your talk or sign-up at a noon Rotary meeting.
