A request to our District Rotarians is that you consider introducing the ‘Clem Renouf END POLIO NOW Club’ to your Rotary clubs. The concept is very simple.
Each Club is requested to set up a branch of the ‘Clem Renouf END POLIO NOW Club’ within their club and ALL members are requested to donate $10 each per year. When the task is complete (for as many members who agree to take part and there must be NO compulsion), the Club may deposit the funds directly into the Sir Clem Renouf Centenary Year Appeal – set up at the beginning of the Rotary year as a tribute to one of Rotary’s great leaders, generally acknowledged as the founder of the End Polio campaign.
We believe this fund raiser is achievable, given most Rotarians will donate $10 to become a member of such a club – as the donation process is simple and well organised! Imagine the impact … With more than 30,000 Rotarians in New Zealand and Australia, if just half our numbers joined the club we would collect more than $150,000 and change the course of personal giving forever.
