Thank you Rotary Club of Flint for your donation on our behalf to eliminate polio infection worldwide. The rotary has had a “vision” of a polio free world and joined with other public health organizations to partner in the same vision. It is important to us at Red Rover Ventures that we “join hands” with our partners on collaborative health efforts.
Polio causes paralysis in 1 on 200 people who are not immunized and infects primarily children under age 5. In March 2014, India was certified polio free–a modern public health miracle. It is the “hummingbirds”–the small contributions of individuals and groups like the Rotary Club of Flint that impact the global lives of others’ and make these miracles possible.
