What is polio, and why should I care?  Polio is a highly contagious viral disease that can cause paralysis. There is no cure. You may not have heard of it because of the worldwide vaccination program. 
On Friday, October 24, Jet's Pizza at the locations below donated $2 per pizza toward the eradication of polio. Thank you, Jet's Pizza, for our continued support toward the eradication of polio.

Fostering Hope through Backpacks
Fostering Hope is an ongoing Backpack project partnered with DHHS in Saginaw.  The project provides the “First Nights Stay” for children who are in a Child Protective Services/ Removal/ Foster Care situation. The backpacks are packed with essentials for the night.  Pajamas, underwear, socks, a toy, and age appropriate toiletries.  The program, which started in 2019, delivered over 155 backpacks in its first full year. The Club has continued this program into 2025. This project has been funded by Club fundraisers and private Rotarian donations.
Little Free Library
The Saginaw Sunrise Rotary Club sponsors a “Little Free Library” at Krossroads Park near the Rainbows End playground in Kochville Township. The Library is a book exchange for children to encourage reading.  It has a "take a book, leave a book" policy, although it is perfectly all right to take the book home as well. Come check it out.
