President's Program

This week's program to highlight Rotary's Polio Plus

This week's program will feature President Brad Rosenbaum discussing Polio Plus, the international coalition to eradicate the crippling and potentially fatal disease.

Rotary and its partners has reduced polio cases by 99 percent worldwide since 1979, when it launched its first project to vaccinate children in the Philippines.

More than 2 billion children have been immunized against polio in 122 countries.

Rotary International's Polio Plus partners include the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, UNICEF, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
