Work to End Polio

By on February 18, 2013

Volunteering through Rotary International’s PolioPlus program, Ann Lee Hussey has traveled to more than 20 countries including India, Egypt, Niger, Bangladesh and Chad in order to immunize as many children as possible against polio. She does all this despite having suffered from polio as a child and currently suffering with PPS – post-polio syndrome.

Ann Lee Hussey joined Rotary in April 2002 and immediately became involved by traveling internationally to assist children undergoing cleft lip and palate surgery.

As a polio survivor, however, Ann Lee’s true passion is for eradicating the disease. Hear her amazing story and the role we can all play in helping to eliminate polio worldwide.
