By Rotary Service & Engagement Staff
Rotary members are part of the fight against disease everyday through our work to end polio. The past two years have shown us that it’s more important than ever to remain committed to combatting disease. So, we’ve leveraged the expertise and assets that we’ve used to combat polio to help mitigate and contain the COVID-19 pandemic. But our efforts don’t stop there. Members around the world are working to promote health education and access to routine care in their communities.
During Disease Prevention and Treatment Month, consider how you can support health locally and around the world.
