Three Byesville Rotarians become Paul Harris Fellows

Oziel Jeffries, Dr. Mamidi, and Shana Fair were presented with the emblems earned by Rotarians who become Paul Harris Fellows. They were presented with a Paul Harris Medallion, a Paul Harris Fellow pin, and a certificate recognizing their commitment to the objectives and mission of Rotary International.

The Paul Harris Fellowship is named for Paul Harris who founded Rotary with three business associates. It was established in 1957 in honor of Mr. Harris. Rotarians become Paul Harris Fellows when they contribute $1000 to The Rotary Foundation. Funds from The Rotary Foundation are used for a variety of humanitarian and educational programs that save and invigorate the lives of people around the world and that enhance international friendship and understanding. This Foundation helps fund Rotarian efforts to provide food, potable water, immunizations and shelter for millions of people.

Monies from The Rotary Foundation return to local clubs when the club applies for a Simplified Grant. These grants are used by clubs to support local service projects. In the past, Byesville Rotary has used funds from the Rotary Foundation to support its annual Christmas Food Basket program.

Jeffries, Mamidi, and Fair join 13 other members of the Byesville club who are Paul Harris Fellows.

The club meets 7:30 am every Tuesday at the Stop Nine Senior Center at 60313 (GPS use 60299) Southgate Road, Byesville. Anyone interested in learning more about the Byesville Rotary can call Membership Chairs Marty Patchen, 740-685-3828, or Randy Launder, 740-801-0017.
