This October let’s get together and paint it End Polio Red!
Walk with Us is an End Polio Now event to be held across Australia and New Zealand throughout October to raise funds to eradicate the scourge of polio.
Corporate sponsorship will cover administration costs so 100% of funds raised by walkers will go to Rotary’s End Polio Now program. Register now and donate at www.rotarywalkwithus.org
The customised user-friendly fundraising platform will:
- Allow everyone registering, to select 10k, 20k, or 50k (or set your own target) to walk as well as determine your own fundraising goal.
- Provide donation links for walkers to share with friends, family and others.
- Add walks, track distances and fundraising totals for individuals and teams including leader boards.
- Have fun
You will have from October 1st to 31st 2020 to walk when you want and with who you want to reach your target in a COVID safe way.
Let’s all walk for those who can’t.

And a further message from Rob Byrne, RISPPO (Rotary International South Pacific and Philippines Office)
I’d just like to confirm that we’ve made arrangements with Kitty O’Connor and her Walk With Us team:
- they’ll be sending us details of the contributions they receive from Rotarians who register in the walk,
- we’ll be crediting these contributions to the Rotarians’ records, no matter where they’re located.
And, of course, this recognition automatically flows through to their clubs and districts.
We’re very supportive of this R100 initiative and would encourage you to promote it to clubs and members in your district. It’s a simple, powerful and fun way to raise funds in support of World Polio Day, even in those areas dealing with COVID restrictions. A huge thank you to DG Philip, PP Kitty and their talented team for making this excellent fundraising resource available to all districts.
