Rotary Ending Polio

District Governor, Mike Klingbiel, has asked all of us to support the eradication of Polio.  We can do this financially by texting "Polio" to 90999 and then confirming the e-Mail we receive.  The week commencing February 18, 2013 is targeted in our District as "End Polio Week," and the period he is encouraging us and our friends to make this donation.  Each time we do this, $5.00 is added to your bill, but also to the End Polio Now effort of Rotary International.  You do not have to be a Rotarian, anyone can text to help.  Think about it, and encourage your text literate friends and family to do this for those in need.

Additionally, I have asked every club member to consider a donation of $10.00 or more by April 3 to the PolioPlus Program.  Texting a donation as above will count toward this, but you have to let me know, please.  In addition, some members have given cash or checks (made out to PolioPlus, please) to me or Rose toward this request.  Thank you.

 On April 3, all fines, donations, birthday or anniversary payments will be applied so that every member of our club (in additional to whatever else each has done) is credited with a donation.  Consider making a donation of $50.00 to PolioPlus ($1.00 for each member, approximately) on that date to End Polio Now!!

 Thanks,

 T.J Carney, International Programs Chair
