The original four Rotarians:
Gustavus E. Loehr, Silvester Schiele, Hiram E. Shorey, and founder Paul P. Harris. |
Paul Harris Fellow recognition was created in memory of Paul Harris, the founder of Rotary as a way to show appreciation for
contributions to the Foundation's charitable and educational program. A Paul Harris Fellow is an individual who contributes $1,000
or in whose name that amount is contributed. Every Paul Harris Fellow receives a pin, medallion and a certificate when he or she becomes a Fellow.
This identifies the Paul Harris Fellow as an advocate of the Foundation's goals of world peace and international understanding.
