World Polio Day 2024

World Polio Day 2024 is just around the corner on October 24th! Rotary International celebrates this day every year to recognize progress in the fight to end polio and to discuss actions needed to eradicate it for good. This global event is an opportunity to recognize the progress made in the fight against polio and to highlight the importance of vaccination in protecting children from the disease.

Rotary has been working tirelessly to eradicate polio for over 35 years, and their efforts have led to a 99.9% reduction in polio cases since 1979. But, the work isn't done yet. Afghanistan and Pakistan are still endemic with polio, and continued efforts are crucial to keeping other countries polio-free. Efforts to eradicate polio are ongoing, led by global health organizations and local governments. Despite progress, challenges persist due to factors like conflict, vaccine misinformation, and accessibility issues. Afghanistan is currently reporting 19 cases and Pakistan is reporting 21.

Lankins Recognized for Gundaker Gifts

The Gundaker Foundation has honored Bob and Holly Lankin with Diamond Circle recognition to honor their generosity as $10,000 donors and for their exemplary "Service Above Self'."

Funds raised through the Gundaker Foundation are used to support Community Service Projects that benefit local clubs and their communities throughout District 7450.  In addition, Gundaker strives to provide Vocational Education scholarship funds for deserving students attending local vocational and technical schools.

"Generous benefactors like the Lankins help those goals to be fulfilled," says Bianca Mandel, President of Gundaker Foundation.  She adds, "Bob Lankin, a former Gundaker Director and District Governor, and Holly, also a former Gundaker Director, have been very generous donors through the years.  They are the first in my years in Rotary years to reach the $10,000 Diamond Circle level."
