Update #1
2 months ago
One of the high points of my life was my trip to India to give polio vaccine to children as part of a National Immunization Day!
Once again, I will be donning my stretchy bike pants to raise money for the fight against polio! Please help me reach my goal to raise $10,000! All donations are matched 2:1 by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation!
Why I am fundraising for The Rotary Foundation
In 1985, when Rotary started PolioPlus, there were 350,000 new cases of polio every year in 125 countries. Today, thanks to the combined efforts of Rotary International, the WHO, CDC, UNICEF, the Gates Foundation and GAVI, cases have been reduced to only a handful of new cases in two countries - Pakistan and Afghanistan. This is a remarkable achievement!
On October 26, I'll be joining with other Rotarians on a bike ride to raise money to finish the job! And I need your help! Any amount is appreciated!
All donations will be matched 2:1 by the Gates Foundation, which means your donation will be tripled - every $100 becomes $300!
Please donate to my campaign! Let's beat polio once and for all!
