History of the Paul Harris Fellow Award

Paul Harris was the founder of Rotary. The Paul Harris Fellow Award is one of the highest honours Rotary can bestow upon an individual. Recipients are community professionals, as well as Rotarians, who are recognized for their outstanding contributions to their community. They exemplify the highest ideal in Rotary, which is also our motto, “Service above Self.”
Along with the recognition of the award our Club makes a donation of $1,000 in the recipient’s name, to Rotary International’s Annual Fund – SHARE Account, which supports Rotary’s world-wide programs centered on saving and enhancing lives by providing educational programs, food, potable water, health care, immunizations, shelters for millions of people, good environmental practices, and peace centres. The activities are funded, implemented, and managed by Rotarians and Rotary clubs around the globe, including our own Rotary Club of Fonthill.
