On 10/24/26, World Polio Day, Rotary members across Region 36 – Zones 25 & 29 are coming together for something BIG — a bold, unified step toward a polio-free world. We are calling on 36,620 Rotarians and 964 Rotaractors across 11 states and 2 countries to take part in the World’s Largest Polio Walk — a powerful, visible demonstration of our commitment to ending polio forever. This is more than a walk. It’s a movement.
Every step taken helps raise awareness and support our collective goal of raising $1 million to end polio. Together, we are “This Close” to eradication—and this is our moment to push across the finish line.

Walk wherever you are
Can't make it to the Mall of America? Register and take part wherever you are — in your neighborhood, at a local park or even on a treadmill. Participants can walk individually, with friends, family or a Rotary club while joining others in the effort to raise awareness about polio.
Show your support with a T-shirt
Community members can also purchase a District 5950 “World’s Largest Polio Walk – 2 Drops” T-shirt for
$18. The shirt provides another way to show support for the effort to eradicate polio and spread
awareness of the cause.
Why It Matters:
Rotary has been working to eradicate polio for decades, reducing cases by over 99.9%. But until we finish the job, children everywhere remain at risk. This walk is our chance to stand united, raise awareness, and show the world that Rotary will not stop until polio is eradicated.
Together, we will make history.
Together, we will take steps toward a polio-free future.
Join the movement. Take the step. End Polio Now.
