We’ll be streaming live from CDC headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, that will bring together more than 50,000 viewers around the world. We’ll be joined by celebrities and experts to share our progress on the road to polio eradication. Find out how you can help us finish the job!

Join a Rotarian Action Group and take action together to make an even bigger difference.

| Hosting a fun day for children in need Earlier this year the Rotaract Club of El Tahrir organized a day filled with face painting, football, a bouncy house, and group games for orphaned children. The club also showcased the children’s handicraft projects for the community. Collaboration made this event a success; the Rotaractors received support from their sponsoring Rotary Club and involved the neighboring Interact Club. Share your service story! Post your project on Rotary Showcase and email the link to newgenerations@rotary.org | |
