District 7090’s PolioPlus Society

Rotarians across districts have been committed for nearly four decades to raising funds that protect children worldwide from polio. Thanks to your efforts, we’re "This Close" to eradicating this dreadful disease. Rotary continues to lead the charge with a goal of raising $50 million annually, matched 2:1 by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, making your contribution even more powerful.

To support this mission, District 7090 proudly announces the launch of its PolioPlus Society—a collective effort to fund polio eradication until the last two countries, Afghanistan and Pakistan, are certified polio-free by the World Health Organization.

The PolioPlus Society is a program for Rotarians, clubs, and friends of Rotary who pledge to:

Donate $100 USD or more annually to the PolioPlus Fund, and

Continue annual donations until polio is eradicated worldwide

Donations:

Receive Paul Harris Fellow credit

Receive Foundation Recognition Points (which count toward awarding PHF status to a worthy recipient, or can be transferred to others)

Are matched 2:1 by the Gates Foundation
