On Tuesday, October 24, in recognition of World Polio Day, Rotary clubs in District 6650 are hosting a fundraising event for End Polio Now. For every $20 donated, you will receive a dozen Purple Pinkie Donuts - a glazed donut stick, topped with a dab of purple icing. Each box provides vaccines to help eradicate polio.
In countries where the threat of polio remains high, every child under five years receives polio vaccine by mouth twice a year during the events called “National Immunization Days. ”When vaccinating millions of children in a very short period of time it is
impossible to document which child has received the vaccine, so every child vaccinated has the little finger (pinkie) nail of their left hand painted with an indelible purple marker.
