In the 1950s, Emi Chemat’s sister, Tish Abiera-Reyes, contracted polio at a celebration in Manila, along with many other children. Tish was fortunate to have access to medical care, undergoing 13 surgeries before age 21. Thanks to this, she was able to live a vibrant life—driving, dancing, swimming, and reclaiming the freedom polio had tried to take. But not all survivors had the same resources; many faced lifelong challenges and disabilities. Since 1988, Rotary has reduced polio cases worldwide by 99.9%, but the fight isn’t over. As long as polio exists anywhere, it’s a threat everywhere. Join Rotary in the fight to #EndPolio and help protect future generations. Every donation brings us closer to a polio-free world🌍💉 Read her story: https://lnkd.in/gfKB5Df3

For Ligia Corredor, travel is about making lifelong friendships 💛 Through the International Travel and Hosting Fellowship, she connects with Rotary members around the world for meetups, home stays, and local experiences. With over 850 members, the fellowship allows travelers to explore new places through the eyes of locals. Members like Rick and Mary Ellen Harned and Tracey Wyatt also value these connections, whether it’s a walking tour in Japan, kangaroo sightings in Australia, or a cooking class in Bali. The fellowship is about more than travel—it’s about building lasting relationships and experiencing the world in a meaningful way 🗺️

"Habari yako" from📍Zanzibar, Tanzania! In Nungwi, fishing and dhow boat building are central to life. The island’s fertile land produces valuable spices like cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon, attracting traders for centuries. Zanzibar’s mix of African, Arab, Persian, and Indian cultures is reflected in its warm hospitality and laid-back nature. Locals live by hakuna matata (no worries) and pole pole (take it slow) 🌿 The Rotary Club of Zanzibar Stonetown, founded in 2005, has 15 members dedicated to supporting this vibrant community.
