Less than a Latte – Club 355
Did you know that for less than the cost of a Grande Mocha that you can save six lives?
Every week, you change the life of a child in Pakistan, Afghanistan, India or Nigeria by delivering the precious polio vaccine.
The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has donated $355 million to Rotary’s campaign to End Polio Now. They challenge each and every Rotarian to match that donation by raising $200 million for the Rotary Foundation Polio Plus fund.
We are almost there, with $179 million already contributed! But to reach our goal of eradicating polio completely, we must join to together with Bill and Melinda. They put up $355 million. Will you pledge $3.55 a week?
These Rotarians have already made the pledge:
- RC Anaheim – Johrita Solari
- RC Anaheim – Bruce Solari
- RC Anaheim Hills – George Gillespie
- RC Anaheim Hills – Roy Jefferson
- RC Anaheim Hills – Gianna Solari
- RC Buena Park – Christiane Salts
- RC Buena Park – Woo Lim
- RC Lakewood – Marie Flynn
- RC Long Beach – Greg Owen
- RC Newport Balboa – Roger McGonegal, PDG
- RC Orange Sunrise – Rae Shirer

And these non-Rotarian donors have joined “Club 355″ too!
