End of Year Social Get Together
Salvation Army Ribbon Cutting Ceremony
Kim Smith, Coordinator Polio Canada & National Programs, Community Programs presented an update to the Rotary Club of Ajax via a Zoom. Sanjeev Agnihotri, a polio survivor, delivered a powerful testimony with his inspirational and informative presentations. Living with polio is a lifelong challenge which everyone can attest to after hearing Sanjeev’s presentation. For polio survivors, the onset of post-polio syndrome in later life presents a new set of symptoms which can be even more devastating. Post-Polio Canada continues to link polio survivors and their caregivers to peer support groups nation-wide. The program focuses on providing valuable information, resources and support to people with post-polio syndrome and the community.
Rotary International is a global network, and was a pioneer in the fight against polio worldwide. It started its efforts in 1978 with the goal of eradicating polio and continues its support to this day.
