Rotary Club of Emporium
During District Governor, Herb Smith’s visit to the Emporium Rotary Club this week, he spoke about this year’s Rotary Theme: Create Hope in the World. Herb is shown here with the Endless Mountains Methodist Church members who volunteer to cook the meals for our club each week.
Currently, there is more hope for one of Rotary’s biggest projects: the eradication of Polio worldwide. For over 35 years, Rotary has been working to eradicate polio globally. Their biggest challenge has been entering Afghanistan & Pakistan to administer the vaccine – the last 2 remaining countries with active Polio cases in the world. Recently, there is more hope than ever before as there is talk of these countries finally allowing Rotarians to enter and administer the Polio vaccine.
Thank you, Herb, for your passionate and inspiring speech during your visit!
