Polio Plus Update and Video

 
 
At Rotary last Thursday, we launched our club’s annual PolioPlus campaign.  Thirty club members have already made a pledge: will you join with us?

Please give what you can: $500, $100, $50, $25 or any other amount.  All members donating $25 or more can attend the Bridgewalk to End Polio on Saturday, October 24, 2015, which is World Polio Day.  We’ll meet at Prescott Park, joining Rotarians from all over District 7780 in our commitment to End Polio Now.
 
Every dollar you donate is matched 2:1 by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.   The first $1500 donated by Portsmouth Rotary members will be matched by a board-approved donation of club charitable funds as well, so you can turn your dollar into as many as six dollars by making a pledge to this campaign. 
 
Pledge cards are available at our club meetings during the coming few weeks.   Contact Bob Sheesley or Dave Underhill for more info.  If you wish, you can simply make a pledge by emailing Dave (dave.underhill.nh@gmail.com) or by giving a check made out to “Rotary” to our club treasurer.  Please write “PolioPlus” in the memo line.
 
Here’s a video explaining the Bridgewalk that includes an updated on Rotary’s efforts to End Polio Now:
 
 
Thank you!
