Paul Harris Fellowships



The Paul Harris Fellowship is named for Paul Harris, who founded Rotary with three business associates in Chicago in 1905.  The Fellowship was established in his honor in 1957 to express appreciation for a contribution of $1,000 to the humanitarian and educational programs of The Rotary Foundation.  Those programs include an array of projects that save and invigorate the lives of people around the world and enhance international friendship and understanding.  Foundation programs provide educational opportunities, food, potable water, health care, immunizations and shelter for millions of persons.  These activities are funded, implemented and managed by Rotarians and Rotary clubs around the globe.  Today, the following individuals were recognized for their contributions to The Rotary Foundation:
Dick Calder  - Pin with 3 rubies
Dwight Easty – Pin with 1 sapphire
Kevin Loomans – Pin with certificate
Barb Merry – Pin with 2 sapphires
