Rotary International's pledge of US $120 million to fund its PolioPlus program was announced in October 1985 as part of Health, Hunger and Humanity (3-H) program goal, donating US$247 million.  Dr Carlos Canseco of Mexico was the Rotary International President in 1984-85 when he appointed the Polio 2005 Committee. By the time the world is certified polio-free, Rotary's contributions to the global polio eradication effort will exceed US $600 million.
