WAKEFIELD, Mass. - Feb. 11, 2020 - Rotary District 7930 is holding its 10th Annual Polar Plunge on Saturday, February 29th, at 10:00am, on Long Beach in Gloucester, right in front of the Cape Ann Motor Inn.
This year's TEAM HDPT plungers once again include Wakefield Rotarian and HDPT co-founder Ed Harding, PTA, along with HDPT co-founder Glenn D'Addario, MSPT, DPT, and many staff members and patients! Also joining us again this year is the team at High Function Fitness in Woburn, MA. To learn more about them, visit: https://highfunctionfit.com.
Team captain Ed explains, "for as little as 60 cents worth of an oral vaccine, a child can be protected from this terrible disease for life. The plunge event is fun for everyone, but the real money we raise directly translates to thousands of vaccines. It is an amazing feeling to know that we have a hand in preventing a crippling disease from affecting children."
After over 20 years of hard work, Rotary and its partners are on the brink of eradicating polio; a strong push is needed now to eliminate it once and for all. Donations directly support immunization campaigns in developing countries where polio continues to infect and paralyze children, robbing them of their futures and compounding the hardships faced by their families.
All proceeds benefit The Rotary Foundation's End Polio Now Campaign. Plus, all gifts are matched 2:1 by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation!
Visit us at: https://app.mobilecause.com/vf/endpolio/EdHarding to join our team & donate today! Friends & family are invited to register and plunge with us, or be a virtual plunger! All supporters are welcome on the beach; it's always a fun event for families. Check out the Facebook event page for more details on the day!
