ONE DAY, WE WANT POLIO TO BE HISTORY.
And we can all play a small part in making that happen.
Around the world, children deserve the chance to grow up healthy, walk, run, play, and live without the threat of polio. Through Rotary’s End Polio campaign (salamat mga kabayan dahil sinimulan natin ito sa Pilipinas), we’re working toward a world where no family has to fear this preventable disease.
But making that vision a reality takes all of us.
You don’t have to make a huge donation to make a difference. Sometimes, it starts with something as simple as buying a pack of cake pops.
This year, thanks to Sugar & Sunshine Bakery, $5 from every cake pop pack sold will go toward the End Polio campaign.
Treat yourself, surprise someone you love, or bring something sweet to your next gathering. Your purchase can help support a cause that reaches far beyond our own community.
And if you’d like to take action beyond your purchase, join us for our End Polio Walk!
📍 Victoria Park, downtown Lindsay
📅 Saturday, October 24
🕥 Meet us at 10:30 AM
Come walk with us, show your support, and help raise awareness for a world free of polio. Every step is a reminder that when communities come together, small actions can create lasting change.
You can support the campaign by ordering cake pops, joining our walk, or simply sharing this post to help spread the word.
Start small. Help big. ❤️
Because no child should have to live with polio.

Making a difference doesn’t always happen in one big moment. Sometimes, it’s one backpack, one child, one act of kindness at a time.

A heartfelt thank you to TLChangeDSB for giving us the opportunity to be part of something that matters. We’re grateful for the trust and for the chance to help make a difference, one backpack at a time.

This is Rotary in action.

Our work is just beginning. 🫶
