In 2013, Keith and PP Ken Dennis raised $7,000 for End Polio and Rotary Foundation. Keith hit 70 push-ups in 90 seconds. That was 2 years ago. Mind you, he was two years younger then. He will be up against our club members Antonio and Dean, Chris.   

Polio

Polio remains endemic in two countries, Pakistan and Afghanistan.Nigeria, which was endemic last year has been polio free for the last year. Our money will go a long way as one dollar becomes an impressive 5 dollars towards;efforts such as massive National Immunization Days.

Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Matching Grant

From 2013 to 2018,  the Gates Foundation will match 2 for 1 every new dollar Rotary commits to polio eradication up to $35 million per year through 2018. All funds raised will support crucial immunization activities in polio-affected countries.US$15 = 100 doses of polio vaccine, just 60 cents will protect a child for life.
