[Rotary] Fwd: Rotary Weekly | How will you observe World Polio Day?

[Donna Schuler]

Dear Mendocino Rotarians,
This is from Rotary International. It's an easy read, and has quick links
to World Polio Day, Oct 23, (I suggest if you could, make your annual
Rotary Foundation donation to the End Polio Now fund). Also, there are
handy links to growing our membership, and a *Rotary International Fire
relief fund for our devastating Northern California fires!*

I know some of you have already given, and are aware, there are three LOCAL
funds for victims of the fires.

The Community Foundation of Mendocino fire relief fund:
