October is recognized as Polio Awareness Month by Rotary International and other organizations to raise awareness and funds for polio eradication. The month-long campaign culminates with World Polio Day on October 24, which commemorates the work done to combat the disease and highlights ongoing efforts to eliminate it worldwide.
This year, The Rotary (Noon) Club of Plattsburgh teamed up with the Rotary Club of Plattsburgh Sunrise to raise funds for RI's effort to eradicate polio.
Many people join Rotary as a means of "paying back" for the professional success they have achieved. They are looking for ways to help others. When you join Rotary, you play a role in helping the club achieve its community and worldwide goals. This is done both through involvement in community projects and financial support. Rotary club membership is a great way to mix with community leaders from all walks of life and to hear outstanding speakers each week.
