Supporting Rotaract Rotaract Club of Atlanta Supporting End Polio Efforts
The Rotaract Club of Atlanta (pictured above at the World Polio Day event at the CDC) has asked our support in collecting funds to End Polio Now. Rotaractors were out in force at the World Polio Day event at the CDC - and have created a link from their Facebook page to collect donations for polio eradication. You can help in a variety of ways:
- By liking the Rotaract Club of Atlanta's Facebook page - and sharing their fund-raising event
- By making a contribution to their initiative at https://my.cheddarup.com/c/world-polio-day-donation
By making a contribution directly to The Rotary Foundation in your name through the club - while Rotaract wouldn't get credit for this it still supports our common cause of Ending Polio. You can do this online or by sending a check to PDG Bill Mulkey or bringing it to a Friday meeting. If it's your intent to contribute to End Polio, designate that online or let PDG Bill know when you send a contribution.
