October 24 is World Polio Day
As you may know, Sunday, 24 October 2010 is World Polio Day. In honor of World Polio Day, The Rotary Foundation is happy to announce 2 for 1 recognition points for every online contribution of US$100 or more made to PolioPlus during 18-24 October 2010, Central Standard Time.
To make your online donation during the week of 18-24 October, you MUST be registered on Member Access. Visit the Rotary website to learn about registering, review frequently asked questions and/or complete the Rotary E-Learning module on Member Access. Please note that you will need a valid e-mail address to create an account. You will receive a verification e-mail with a hyperlink within 24 hours. You must click the verification link to complete the registration process. If you do not see the e-mail in your Inbox, check your Spam/Bulk/Junk folder.
Please note that contributions on www.rotary.org/contribute are in US dollars and will receive a US tax receipt. Donors will need to print the tax receipt at the time of donation. Also, online contributions cannot be made on behalf of another individual, club or district.
We expect to have a high volume of online traffic associated with this promotion. Please allow 4-6 weeks for the promotional points to appear. Once the promotional points have appeared in their accounts, donors may request their recognition materials.
A frequently asked questions sheet is available on the two-for-one recognition to benefit Rotary’s US$200 Million Challenge. Visit the Rotary website to download the FAQ.
Please remember only online donations of US$100 or more given during 18-24 October (Central Daylight Savings Time) to PolioPlus will receive double recognition.
I hope you will join me in contributing online to PolioPlus in honor of World Polio Day. Together we will End Polio Now.
Sincerely,
John T. Osterlund
