Advocacy

We are devoted advocates regarding:

The 15+ million Polio Survivors worldwide, the vast majority of whom are realizing the disabling effects of Post-Polio Syndrome.
Of equal importance is to draw attention to the critical need of being immunized against polio and all crippling childhood diseases.

We are actively engaged with Rotary International in their fight to eradicate this terrible disease.
