Your Weekly Update

April 19th, 2024
Dear Rotarians,
 
This is your reminder that we are meeting on Friday, April 26th at the library. We may have a change in speaker as our original speaker can't make it, but please attend!! We have Stonefire Grill catering lunch, and it is always delicious. There will be fun and fellowship and that is a promise. We are dark next Friday, May 3rd.
 
A few of us worked the booth last night at the PVP Chamber event, which was so fun, and we have a note from President Julia:
 
"Thank you to Lindsey, Nagi, David, Jim, and Jennifer for helping at the PVP Chamber Business Expo! We have a nice list of prospective members! This would not have happened without you all! I appreciate your time and efforts more than you know!" 
 
Also, congrats to the Salvation Army 5K fundraising event, sponsored by Rotary Club of PVP. Pics also below.
Team PVP Rotary in effect!

Immunization is a cornerstone of public health, saving millions of lives each year and preventing the spread of infectious diseases, like polio. Rotary International has spent over 40 years making sure children receive life-saving polio vaccines, beginning with our first immunization campaign in the Philippines in 1979.  

As a Rotary member, you are a part of this historic legacy, and we need your help to keep our promise to give children around the world a polio-free future.

Here are three things you can do to support our #EndPolio efforts during World Immunization Week 24-30 April:

  1. Spread the word: Use the World Immunization Week Toolkit for graphics and sample posts to share on social media with the hashtags #EndPolio and #VaccinesWork. You can also use the “Letter to the Editor” template to craft a letter for your local newspaper.
  2. Organize an event: Host a fundraiser that educates community members on Rotary’s polio eradication efforts.
  3. Support vaccination campaigns: Partner with local healthcare organizations to encourage routine immunizations in your community.
