WORLD POLIO DAY
PROCLAMATION
Club Honor by Village of Northbrook
Village Hall 1225 Cedar Lane
7:30 PM
 
Join us at the Village of Northbrook to get the WORLD POLIO DAY Proclamation. This is a continuation of Rotary educating the community about our primary mission.

From End Polio Now: Districts around the world are launching PolioPlus societies or reinvigorating their current ones, and the response has been amazing and positive. This initiative allows each district to establish criteria for membership in their society, including a minimum recurring gift, and decide on their own recognition awards and marketing materials.

The Rotary Foundation Trustees are giving districts flexibility to implement this fundraising approach for the PolioPlus Fund in ways that work best in their own regions. A district that establishes a PolioPlus Society is emphasizing the importance of reliable and recurring donations to fulfill our promise to the children of the world.

        
ZONE INSTITUTE 
 
The Zone Institute was held in Evanston last week. District Rotarians from Zones 25B and 29 met for workshops, training and socializing. 
 
This was a great time and gave Rotarians a taste of the 2030 Convention that will be held in Chicago.
 
The Global event will return to Chicago for the first time since 2005 to celebrate its 125th anniversary in the city it was founded.

Ways to help...

We’re working with a consulting group to help guide our strategic planning process, and we want to hear from as many people from the community as possible to learn what is important to them.
 
Please help us do this by sharing our community survey. 
 
Help shape Northbrook Public Library's future by taking an important community survey that will help guide their strategic planning efforts for the next 3-5 years. The survey is open until November 6 and is available in English, Korean, Russian, and Spanish at www.northbrook.info/survey.
