Good afternoon, everyone!

*It starts today! 🔥*

Today, October 2, the *Rotary District 5130 World Polio Torch Relay* begins
its journey in Crescent City and starts making its way south toward the
Mendocino Coast!

*One week from tomorrow, it’s our turn.*

This is truly a *District 5130 Team effort*, with Rotary clubs throughout
the district coming together for one shared goal: *ending polio for good.*
So far, our clubs have collectively raised *more than $8,000 for
PolioPlus. *There is still plenty of time for Mendocino to help grow that
number.

If you haven’t donated yet, this is the week! Donations of any amount make
a difference, and thanks to the *Gates Foundation’s 2-to-1 match, every $1
donated becomes $3 toward Rotary’s work to end polio.*

🔥 *DONATE TO OUR MENDOCINO FUNDRAISER:*

I’ve also attached our flyer. *Please share it!* Send it to friends and
family, post it on your social media, or simply let someone know what
Rotary is doing and invite them to join us.

Most importantly, *please come out and participate next Saturday, October
10!*

The torch will make its way into Mendocino Village, and we’ll gather at *Rotary
Park from 3:00 - 4:00 p.m.* for our community celebration. Come be part of
the fun, bring a friend or family member, and help us give the torch a
great Mendocino welcome!

One more thing: *Do you have a polio story?*

Maybe polio touched someone in your family, you remember its impact in your
community, or you have a personal connection to why Rotary’s commitment to
ending polio matters to you. The District would love to share these stories
as the torch makes its journey. *Please reach out to me if you have a story
you’d be willing to share.*

The torch is officially on its way. 🔥

*Let’s donate. Let’s share. And next Saturday, let’s show up!*

Thank you, everyone!
Margaret
