He shares why the fight to End Polio Now remains so important and reminds us that every Rotarian has a role to play in making a polio-free world a reality.
Together, Rotary has helped bring the world closer than ever to ending polio. Let’s continue the work, raise awareness, and #EndPolioNow. Play video
Bastrop Rotary provided beds for 18 more area kids on Saturday, Sept. 26. Four crews of some 15 Rotarians and friends covered homes from all over Bastrop County, constructing beds for kids who had no bed of their own. Bed linens, pillows, and a Rotary blanket completed the new beds. Rotary Club of the Austin University Area donated funds ($2,000) for the linens, and Club President, Stephen Niemeyer, came out to Bastrop to help with the deliveries & setups.
The Killeen Heights Rotary Club recently joined volunteers with Sleep in Heavenly Peace for a busy weekend of building beds for local children and families in need. By the end of the weekend, volunteers had completed 10 beds, including a larger build for one Temple family that included three bunk beds and two single beds.
