24 October was World Polio Day - The Rotary Club of Auckland Response
We had a simple idea of engaging the CBD tower cafe operators and having a Rotary member presence during the day.  Easier said than done.  Huge thanks are due to Jai Basrur as Director Community Services, Brian Aitken as Task Group Leader, the team of members that fronted at the cafes but most importantly the cafe operators and staff that took up the call to service. Pictures speak louder than words so here are some:
We had information packs and brochures which we asked CBD tower customers to take back to their lunch rooms.  We had collection boxes so collected a small amount of money.  We heard stories of relatives and others known to the cafe customers that had been afflicted with polio.  We talked about the 5 REASONS for eradication (below).  We had fun while getting the message out about both the importance of Rotary's campaign to End Polio and ROTARY.
