What does Give Polio The Finger mean?
Purple ink on the pinkie finger tells both volunteers and the child’s neighbourhood that one more person is safe from the horror of polio. It is more than a way to identify who has been immunized. It is a symbol of defiance against a crippling disease and a symbol of hope for a polio free world. Vicki and her little helpers will be painting pinkie finger nails 'purple' on Wednesday 24th and collecting 'gold coin donations' for End Polio Now, see (here)
