Most of us walk around viewing things the same each day. Same line at the coffee of your choice, same four walls at the office, same drive home.
What if you shifted that view and it gave you the ability to see differently with newer eyes?
We had a great talk last week from our District Governors Pat and Skip Doyle.

This is part of our three year mental health initiative and the continuation of helping to end the stigma of mental health in the Marlborough and beyond.

This year the Marlborough Rotary club is celebrating our Rotary Foundation’s 100th anniversary.
Our Foundation was started with a donation of $26.50 and to date has raised more than 1 billion for worthy causes here and around the world.
Our foundation has donated to the eradication of Polio in the world because…
• We believe that every child deserves the chance for a healthy life.
• Through the provision of vaccines, we can help ensure a better future for millions of children around the world.
• Right now, we have a unique opportunity to use the power of vaccines to wipe out a disease for good – polio.
• We have the technical tools to end polio and the means to reach all children with immunizations.
• We have developed a clear plan and we are confident we can achieve a polio free world.
• Ending polio means that no child anywhere in the world will have to suffer from this debilitating disease again.
• Moreover, it will prove to the world that we can reach even the hardest-to-reach children with other vaccines and health services.
• If we do not eliminate Polio, it will remain a plane ride away from all the children in the world. We need to finish this fight.
In honor of the Rotary Foundation’s 100th anniversary, we are asking for a donation of $26.50 to help with the effort to eradicate polio.
Together, we can create a brighter future for all the world’s children – beginning with a future free from polio.
Donations can be given below. Thank you
