Seattle Rotary Online is a significant marketing opportunity that is available to organizations that wish to help co-sponsor it. Intended as a library where you can just pull a speaker’s presentation off the shelf, Seattle Rotary Online has been sponsored by First Choice Health CEO, Ken Hamm. Ken is willing to share the financial load (and public awareness!) with companies or other organizations that wish broader awareness within the club or community.
Sponsorships are available for as little as $500. Please contact Seattle 4 Rotarian, David Endicott by email or at 206-409-3275.

Congress Comes Through on Polio Funding
By Steve Crane
Good news for polio funding in the FY17 Omnibus bill President Trump signed May 5. $234 million goes to the Centers for Disease Control and USAID, $5 million more than last year. After the concerns about cuts to both agencies, sustained polio funding affirms continued US leadership among the donor countries, which is critical to achieving eradication. Polio advocacy’s focus now shifts to FY18, where cuts will be proposed again. The support of Washington’s delegation will continue to be essential. So are Rotarians’ contributions to PolioPlus.
Join tens of thousands of Rotarians in Atlanta to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Rotary Foundation and 30 years of women in Rotary!
