Aloha Kona Rotarians,

   We are so close to eradicating polio.  As Rotarians, this is the battle we have chosen to fight.  For some of us that means going to Pakistan or Nigeria and giving vaccines to children.  For most of us, however, it means contributing to the fight through donations.  This year, all four West Hawaii Clubs have agreed to join forces and raise money to fight Polio on November 9th through the Project Compassion Polio Plus Fund Raiser at Denny’s in Kona.

   What can you do?
 Come eat dinner and bring a friend (or 2 or 3). 
  20% of the meal ticket goes to Polio Plus

   100% of the tip goes to Polio Plus
  
  100% of sponsorship dollars go to Polio Plus
  100% of auction sales go to Polio Plus
  
 $20 for each mug supports Polio Plus

 

   The Polio Plus Project Compassion is a great social event, and fund raiser that costs us nothing.  Please don’t miss this opportunity to join forces with the rest of the West Hawaii Clubs and Rotary Clubs across the world raising money to fight polio.

   IMPORTANT DATE:  If you can find a $250 sponsor, to commit before October 28, 2014 will have the opportunity to receive recognition on our signs and fliers for the event, as well as post-event reports.

   Sponsors can make their checks out to “Rotary International Polio Plus”
