We’ve LOVED celebrating World Polio Day, also known as Purple Pinkie Day! Rotary International has partnered with Dunkin' and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to raise money and awareness for End Polio Now! Our philanthropic initiative to eradicate polio started in 1979 when there were hundreds of thousands of polio cases in 125 countries. Now, 42 years later, we are proud to say that there are only 2 known cases of polio remaining! We’ve come a long way over the years, and are thrilled to continue the efforts so that polio will be permanently eradicated in the near future!
