We were thrilled to have Mayor Mike Savage join us at Rotary Halifax Harbour on October 4th, 2024. Throughout his time as Mayor, Mike has consistently shown up for the community, supporting numerous organizations and causes, including our own. In recognition of his dedication and support, we proudly inducted Mayor Savage as an honourary member of Rotary Halifax Harbour. We are grateful for all he has done for Halifax and look forward to seeing what comes next in his journey. Thank you, Mayor Savage, for being a true champion for our city!

This October, Rotary Halifax Harbour is stepping up in the global fight against polio through our #GivePolioTheFinger campaign. You may be familiar with the tradition of marking pinkie fingers with purple dye after a child receives the polio vaccine, signifying protection from this crippling disease. With this campaign, we’re asking our members and supporters to symbolically “give polio the finger”—to take a stand, spread awareness, and rally behind Rotary’s efforts to end polio for good.

On October 21, 2024, the Rotary Clubs of HRM are hosting Pints for Polio at Celtic Corner in Dartmouth! For just $25, you’ll get a delicious burger and beer, with $5 from every ticket going directly to End Polio Now. Tickets can be purchased at the door, and the offer is available from 11 AM to the kitchen close. It’s a great way to enjoy good food, good company, and support an amazing cause! Let’s give polio the finger and raise some money. Learn more here.
