Rotary Walk With Us

Labour Day walk around Lake Burley Griffin

On Monday, 6 October, some of our Walk With Us to End Polio Now participants took advantage of the public holiday to stretch their legs and add a few more kilometres to their tally with a walk around Lake Burley Griffin this afternoon.

Every step we take helps us get closer to a polio free world, but we need more help to reach our fundraising goal!

Our team is aiming to raise $2,000, and thanks to the Gates Foundation, every dollar donated will be matched 2:1.

We're challenging ourselves to walk, run or roll 10, 20, or 50km throughout the month and raise vital funds that will help eradicate and prepare us for a Polio free world.

Polio is a crippling and potentially fatal disease that still affects children in parts of the world. There’s no cure, but there is a solution — safe and effective vaccines. Through Rotary’s global End Polio Now campaign, we’re working to immunise every child, everywhere, until transmission stops and the world is truly polio-free.

This October, members of the Rotary Club of Canberra Sundowners are lacing up their shoes to help make that vision a reality. Our team will be walking, running and strolling throughout Canberra — especially around our iconic Lake Burley Griffin — as part of Rotary’s Walk With Us campaign. Together, we’re aiming to crack hundreds of kilometres in support of those who can’t walk for themselves
