Rotary in December: Understanding, Preventing and Treating Disease
Greetings! As we know, every month is dedicated to one of the major themes of our Rotary journey. In December, the theme is that which RI is perhaps best known for, at least among non-Rotarians = Disease Prevention and Treatment.
The eradication of Polio has, of course, been Rotary International’s major worldwide corporate effort since the early 1980s. And remarkable progress has been made. The job is not finished, however, and you can be confident that we will not – and cannot – set this torch down until that job is finished.
Unite for Good,
Kristine Redko
District Governor, 2025-26
