We're in the home stretch with polio eradication but the remaining work is probably the most difficult. Pockets of the disease still exist in areas where immunization is difficult for various reasons. It's critical that Rotarians around the world continue to support the fight. One of our biggest contributions is financial. It's a good time for all clubs to be creative in seeking ways to raise funds so that we can honor our pledge to wipe out this awful disease.
In September the Lake in the Hills club had wonderful success at the Lake in the Hills Sunset Fest. Club members sold and served beer. In addition, they used End Polio Now stickers
to encourage people to donate. Many people gave far beyond just a few dollars. The club ended up raising $2,586! Congratulations to their club.
