    JOIN URBANA’s ROTARY CLUB for this fun and effortless way to make a difference in the world! We believe healthy communities are strong communities. That’s one reason we’ve worked tirelessly to help immunize 2.5 billion children against polio. Bringing the world closer to eradicating a deadly disease — that’s what people of action do.

    What is polio?
    Polio, an infectious disease that can cause paralysis. The development of polio vaccines in the mid-twentieth century and a robust international response have helped more than one hundred countries become polio-free. Yet, new cases in the United States and Israel in 2022 underscore the risk that, until it has been eradicated globally, polio can make a comeback in any part of the world.
    Who are the Distinguished Young Women of Frederick County?

    Founded in 1958, Distinguished Young Women is a non-profit organization and free program that encourages participants to reach their full individual potential. Their mission is to empower young women by providing over $1 billion in scholarship opportunities, developing their self-confidence in a positive peer environment and participating in our Life Skills Workshops that prepare them for success after high school.
