1.2 million Rotarians have been working together to end Polio for good.
In 1985, across the world over 1000 victims per year contracted polio, today there are only a handful per year.
As a founding partner of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, Rotary has helped to reduce Polio cases by more than 99%.
If eradication efforts stopped today, within ten years polio could paralyse as many as 200,000 children each year.
Rotary will continue to support this key humanitarian project.
