A Paul Harris Fellow is a recognition that was introduced in 1957 in honour of Paul Harris who founded Rotary in 1905 and for our club to recognise a Paul Harris Fellow we make a contribution of US$1,000 to the Rotary Foundation, this donation enables the Foundation to carry out programs that may improve conditions in the world such as increased food production, literacy, polio immunisation, goodwill and understanding.
This year our club recognised PP Eric Smith as a Paul Harris Fellow.
Eric joined the club in April 2021. In his short time as a member he has joined the board, taken on the Presidency, supported the club through the year of us being ‘The Home of the District Governor’, was a part of the committee that delivered the District Conference in 2024 and has willingly rolled up the sleeves on club BBQ’s, directed parking at the Great Stupa, participated in District Learning & Development, attended two District Conferences and represented our club on the recently formed Rotary Community Group.
