St. Johns Rotary Club wishes to support this year’s POLIO ALL TRANSIT Appeal. Friday October 29th.
This is District’s appeal to raise money to defeat Polio in the world. Some 40 cases still arose last year in Pakistan and Afghanistan. Rotary and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation have invested over USD 1 Billion so far and the campaign is working.
On the 29th October, Rotarians will have free use for the day of the AT network; Ferries, Trains and buses, (where substituting for trains) when wearing Rotary gear. We can collect donations; carrying pails but really the collection is now using QR codes to enable internet banking. We want a good turnout. It is proposed that the St Johns members pickup the train at Orakei / Meadowbank at 7.45am. Ride the train to Swanson; have a coffee and return. Keen riders head out South to Puhinui Road station then Pukekohe. Others ride the ferries to Waiheke.
The club has traditionally donated to the Appeal and we would like to do the same again this year.
