Rotary of Absecon-Galloway recently gave their club member, Anne Thomas, the Paul Harris Fellow Recognition. Anne has been the member of the club since early 1990s and her contribution to several community projects over the years has been tremendous. The Paul Harris Fellow is a recognition of the Rotarian's contribution to the Rotary Foundation and several of its worldwide programs and they receive a commemorative certificate, a pin, and a medallion.
The mission of The Rotary Foundation is to enable Rotarians to advance
world understanding, goodwill, and peace through the improvement of
health, the support of education, and the alleviation of poverty.
The Foundation is a not-for-profit corporation supported solely by voluntary contributions from Rotarians and friends of the Foundation who share its vision of a better world.
Through Foundation grants and programs, Rotarians and other contributors can help change the world. They can finance a well for a village that lacks clean water, improve the environment, or provide scholarships to educate the next generation. The grants and programs available to Rotarians allow them to realize Rotary’s humanitarian mission throughout the world, including its number-one goal of eradicating polio.
