On World Polio Day, 24 October, you can help
make history by lending your voice to spread the word. How?
Be
part of the World’s Biggest Commercial to support polio eradication - the
world’s biggest public health initiative – by adding a photo of yourself
alongside Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Bill Gates, Jackie
Chan, Amanda Peet and other world figures and celebrities participating in
Rotary's "This Close" campaign.
Check out the prelaunch video here to see how it works. On 24 October,
go to www.endpolionow.org, to be included in the constantly expanding commercial.
Many of our celebrity polio
ambassadors who participate in the “This Close” campaign are also accomplished
musicians. Several of them donated
tracks to the End Polio Now album to help raise funds to eradicate polio. On 23
October, The Rotary Foundation will release the End Polio Now album via iTunes
and shoprotary.org. The album includes tracks
by Itzhak Perlman, Zeynab, Staff Benda Bilili, Angelique Kidjo, Donovan, Dan
Maraya Jos, J-Hawk featuring Tanvi Shah, Nydia Caro, Ziggy Marley, David
Sanborn, and Eric Wainaina.

which enables supporters to sign up to share a single message through their
social media accounts. The message will go out at a designated date and time to
amplify the voice of our cause. Visit
