Dear
It's 24 years since the 79th RI Convention in Philadelphia, PA USA (May 1988) when RI President Charles C. Keller announced that Rotarians raised $247 Million dollars for their rallying and initial PolioPlus fund raiser. Keller's theme that year was "Rotarians -- United in Service- Dedicated to Peace".
At the June 2012 convention in Bangkok President Sukuji Tanaka gave us a similar rallying cry (Peace Through Service) and Rotarians today are still diligently working towards eradicating polio.
The world is close to eradicating Polio.
But recently a rise in cases in endemic countries, with unrest and strife and funding shortfalls have placed a wall, which is blocking certification of eradication.
The "Our Foundation Newsletter" suggests using our Rotary Peacefellows to help find solutions.
Read this issue and tell us what you think?
Best wishes,
Eddie Blender, Publisher
