Join the Campaign

Ely Rotary Club President Joany Haag has issued the invitation:  lets all add our photos to Rotary International's End Polio Now Commercial.  Rotarians, their families and friends, all are welcome!
Join world leaders, celebrities, Rotarians and other concerned world citizens with your photo included in the "We are This Close to Ending Polio" commercial.  Joany's photo appears at approximately 53 minutes, 14 seconds into the video.
To get your picture included, follow the links at EndPolioNow.org  Then attach your photo to an email to skasbeer@gmail.com and it can also be posted here.

Checking back on the End Polio Now website, we found Joany's photo was featured two days later, as shown in this screen capture.  There she is, right next to Desmond TuTu!
We were also able to catch two other photos on the website:  this one with Susan sharing the screen with Itzak Perlman, (a polio survivor), Jane Goodall, and Bill Gates.
The other screen capture we were able to snag is one featuring Trader Craig Loughery and "The Lovely Diane."  Diane is the President Elect for the Ely Club and Craig will serve as District Governor in 2015.
The opening screen for the commercial offers a random selection of submitted photos, so there is a chance anyone who has sent in a photo may open the webpage and be staring at themself!
Keep watching:  Becky and Michael just popped up, ten days after their photo was submitted.  It is all luck in the timing when you go to http://thisclose.endpolio.org/en
