Wednesday Stories of Impact - Baraboo Pizza for Polio1
So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
— 1 Corinthians 10:31
The Baraboo Rotary Club along with the Baraboo High School Interact Club ... would like to thank our community for their support on World Polio Day, October 24, 2019. On that day, Rotary clubs from around the world raised money to help eradicate polio. A special thank you to Baraboo’s Pizza Ranch for allowing our club to host a Share Night at the Ranch. High School Interact Club members who volunteered at Pizza Ranch were: Payton Pratt, Rachel Siebers, Laurel Zolper, Marie Fadeyeva, Ellie Hennessy, Mackenna Belter, Maddie Beal and Boo U student Carley Frey. Thanks to the generosity of the Baraboo community, $832.39 was collected. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation will match this money 2:1; therefore, the money raised in Baraboo will be tripled to equal $2,497.17. With this money over 14,500 children can be vaccinated. Eradication of this disease is not far away, and Baraboo is playing its part in the process. Thank you Baraboo!!
