2018 End Polio Now Stamps are still available from Canada Post. Perfect for your holiday cards. What better way to show you and you business are 100% behind ending polio in the world. Here's how to get yours today.....

If anyone wants some, you can order online directly from Canada Post. 

The stamp is a custom made stamp that an individual can create through Canada Post through the following website: 

https://www.canadapost.ca/cpc/en/personal/sending/letters-mail/custom-stamps.page.


If an individual is interested they can contact Jennifer Boyd, President of the Rotary Club of Scarborough Passport , who is also our District 7070 World Polio Day Chair, for assistance.   Her email is  jennifer.boyd@hotmail.com and she can send them the steps as well as the image that fits the stamp dimensions. 

The cost is approximately $75 including shipping and taxes for a sheet of fifty stamps.  

Sheets of stamps have already been sold at our District Conference and are still available for a $100 donation to our End Polio Now Campaign.  Please make cheques payable to the Scarborough Rotary Passport Club.

 

Their Rotary club will issue a tax receipt for the full amount of the donation. "Jennifer and Raffy" will give a sheet of 50 End Polio Now stamps for every $100 donation."

You probably all understand that their club cannot issue a tax receipt for the full amount if you are getting a benefit. Jennifer and Raffy have bought these stamps and are gifting them to anyone who makes a donation.

Jennifer and Raffy have had the stamps available at:

Toronto City Hall Flag Raising Ceremony on Wednesday, October 24 World polio Day.

District 7070 Conference on October 26 and October 27.

Oshawa-Parkwood Rotarian Sonya Thompson had the stamps available at the World Polio Day event on October 24 in the new Global Classroom in the new Centre For Collaborative Education building at Durham College, Oshawa, Ontario  for the World Polio Day In Durham Region from 5 to 9 pm.

We appreciate you sending this message out to anyone you know in Canada as we all raise awareness for Rotary's efforts to eradicate Polio and raise funds for PolioPlus as we Drop To Zero - zero cases of polio on our planet. 

What an excellent opportunity as we get ready to send our Holiday cards to our friends and also to associate your business,  in your day to day mailings, with this great humanitarian project - ending polio.
