We are delighted to introduce one of our newest and most unique members: Herbert the Hummingbird, joining us from sunny Laguna Beach! Herbert brings incredible energy, spirit, and a reminder that even the smallest among us can make a powerful impact in the fight to end polio.
If there was ever a disease that explains exactly why vaccines matter, it is polio.
Multiple safe and effective vaccines have made it possible to carry out massive vaccination campaigns, reaching millions of children in just days.
Cold storage systems and cold‑chain distribution keep those vaccines potent all the way to the most remote communities, and dedicated volunteers put themselves in harm’s way to go door‑to‑door so that no child is missed.
Mass vaccination campaigns reach millions of children in just days.
This is a moment for all Rotarians to be proud of what we have accomplished—and a call to stay the course until the world is declared polio free

e excited to share that Mollie’s $30K Challenge has raised $7,361 so far—and now is the perfect time to accelerate our impact.Here’s why your support matters more than ever:
- A $100 donation is matched by Mollie → becomes $200.
- That $200 is then matched 2:1 by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation → becomes $600.
That means your $100 turns into $600 to help end polio. This is a powerful opportunity to multiply our impact and push across the finish line.
