If the District 7090 clubs can raise $60,000 US by December 10, Thie will match these contributions with all proceeds to go to the EndPolio Now campaign. Your District Foundation committee is looking for 35 clubs to contribute $1,725 US each. Thirty-Five clubs x $1,725 = $60,375. Challenge met!!
Let us not forget that these dollars are matched by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation on a 2 to 1 basis. If the District raises $120,000 US (including Thie’s contribution) this turns into $360,000 US!!
Once your club decides to meet this challenge please notify Sandi Chard, District Foundation Chair or Glen Christensen, Polio Plus Chair.
