#Fights to End Polio
Summary
LAKSHY DREAM FOUNDATION International is a founding of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative. LAKSHY DREAM FOUNDATION the world have been working tirelessly to rid the world of polio by ensuring universal access to the vaccine. Recently India has been certified as wild polio free but the job is not yet complete! LAKSHY DREAM FOUNDATION which wants to raise hopes to play its part in a final determined push to raise funds to ensure total eradication of polio across the world.
Challenge
Although tremendous success has been achieved to date there are still two polio endemic areas in the world. Volunteers often risk their lives to carry out vaccinations. The overriding humanitarian objective to rid the whole world of polio must be achieved. Remaining pockets of resistance must be addressed in order to ensure that this debilitating disease which mainly affects children and which can cause paralysis and even death is eradicated once and for all.
Solution
LAKSHY DREAM FOUNDATION is appealing for funds which will help contribute towards LAKSHY DREAM FOUNDATION commitment to make the final challenging steps which will make a polio free world a reality. Without achieving total eradication, it is estimated that, within 10 years, as many as 200000 children across the world could succumb to polio. Our project aims to ensure that this will not happen! Widespread vaccination is urgently required.
Long-Term Impact
Following the eradication of smallpox in 1980, polio would be only the second human disease to be eradicated worldwide. The disease is literally a plane ride away. The work already undertaken has resulted in many parts of the world, being declared wild polio free in The World. We must ensure that those areas which have achieved this level of success are protected from any future re-infection. Our appeal programme will help achieve this.Please Donate
