Archie Panjabi Of 'The Good Wife' Says Rotary Is 'This Close' To Ending Polio
Archie Panjabi, who plays the tough, intelligent and seductive investigator on The Good Wife, is a celebrity spokesperson for Rotary and has been personally active in the effort to end polio around the world. Today, there are only three countries in the world where polio is endemic; Panjabi's former home country, India, is not one of them. The country has been polio-free for three years now.
On Wednesday, September 25, 2013 at 3:00 Eastern, Panjabi will join me live to discuss her role in the fight to end polio.

Rotary will be livestreaming an event on World Polio Day, October 24, 2013. Put the event on your calendars and plan to watch. According to Rotary, the event “will be a global update on the status of polio eradication; our panelists will include Dr. Bruce Aylward, the world’s top expert on polio eradication and assistant director-general for polio, emergencies and country collaboration at the World Health Organization; Dennis Ogbe, a Nigerian-born polio survivor, Paralympian and Shot@Life ambassador for polio eradication; and Dr. Robert Murphy, director of Northwestern University’s Center for Global Health.”
While I am proud to be a rank-and-file member of Rotary, I don't warrant any credit for this fight.
