How can you make such a big impact? By joining the World’s Biggest Commercial!

 

What is the World’s Biggest Commercial? 

 

It’s an opportunity for people everywhere to add their support to the fight to end polio. You can be part of a commercial starring thousands of people -- leaders, celebrities, and supporters across the globe -- all making history together. 

 

Join Bill Gates, PSY, Jackie Chan, Ziggy Marley, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Jane Goodall, Amanda Peet, and other world figures and celebrities in Rotary’s “This Close” campaign. All you have to do is upload a photo of yourself making the “This Close” gesture at EndPolioNow.org to be added into the constantly growing commercial. 

 

In fact, Rotary was just at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival and engaged with more than 70 celebrities who added their photo to the commercial, including Academy Award Winning Actress Octavia Spencer, EXTRA TV Host Mario Lopez and alternative rock band One Republic. See them and other highlights from Sundance here.

 

Thanks to a USD $50,000 donation from PhRMA every photo uploaded helps Rotary save a child from polio. Each photo uploaded = .60 to help save one child from polio.
