Walk a mile for Polio
About twenty of us walked a mile for Polio today.
We raised over £500...that will turn into £1500 because Bill and Melind Gates ( Microsoft ) are giving £2 for every £1 raised!
Rotary has been working hard to rid the world of Polio for the last 30 years.
Cases are down by 99.9%
2.5 billion children have been immunised...but there are still remote areas that are hard to reach.
It costs just 20p to immunise a child.
In 1985 there were 125 countries with Polio...now there are just two:- Pakistan and Afghanistan.
