Why do you support The Rotary Foundation?
I support the Rotary Foundation because of the "End Polio Now" initiative. One of my childhood friends and his father both had polio so I know firsthand the impact of this dreaded disease. Incidentally they both recovered but my friend is experiencing health problems today as a result of the virus remnants. With that background I find it to be absolutely amazing that a volunteer service organization could take on the task of eliminating polio and succeed in doing so in the United States and almost in the entire world. To me that's an organization and a cause I want to be a part of!
