Rotary Club of Ventura’s Global Grant Project

End Polio

5 reasons Why we need to STOP Polio

1) To Improve Lives

16 million people are walking today who would have otherwise been paralyzed.

2) To Invest in the Future

If polio isn't eradicated, within 10 years, as many as 200,000 children could be paralyzed by it each year.

3) To Improve Child Health

Polio surveillance networks and vaccination campaigns also monitor children for other health problems like vitamin deficiency and measles, so they can be addressed sooner.

4) To Save Money

A polio-free world will save the global economy $40-$50 billion in health costs within the next 20 years.

5) To Make History

Polio eradication would be one of history's greatest public health achievements, with polio following smallpox to become only the second human disease eliminated from the world.

Project BackPack

Through many days of preparation the Ventura rotary club was able to make project backpack a huge success. On August 12th members of the Ventura Rotary club gathered to help distribute backpacks to local students, providing them with backpacks and school supplies needed for the upcoming school year. Thanks to the East Ventura Rotary, South Ventura Rotary, and Lions club for your contributions towards this successful event.

The History of Rotary Club of Ventura

How Our Club Started...

James Briscoe, retiring President of the Santa Barbara Rotary Club, which had received its charter in January, 1918, and Byron Terry, a charter member of Rotary Club Number One, (Chicago Rotary Club, Mr. Terry actually knew Paul Harris), were present and explained the purposes of Rotary.
