The End of Polio campaign is excited to announce that the Rotary Club of Crawley, Perth (in District 9455) has committed to donate AUD$1 - enough to vaccinate a child against polio - for each petition signature, up to a maximum of AUD$20,000.
Rotary members and clubs around the world have been central to the push to eradicate polio, and The End of Polio campaign thanks Rotarians around the world – and in particular those at the Rotary Club of Crawley - for their ongoing support and tireless work to end this disease.
Funds raised through this initiative will be donated directly to the Global Polio Eradication Initiative on behalf of campaign supporters by October 28, 2011.
The Rotary Club of Crawley is calling on other Rotary Clubs around the world to join in this matching pledge. If you would like to get involved, please contact Michael Sheldrick at michael.sheldrick@gmail.com.
