THE DISTINGUISHED PAUL HARRIS FELLOW

The Paul Harris Fellow Award is the highest honor a Rotarian can receive within the club, recognizing individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the club and their community. Established in 1957 to acknowledge substantial support for Rotary’s scholarship program, the award has evolved over time. Early recipients included past RI Director Allison G. Brush and longtime RI Treasurer Rufus Chapin, while Mrs. Adan Vargas became the first woman honored 7 years later. Today, recipients receive a certificate and pin, symbolizing their dedication to Rotary’s mission. Notable honorees include U.S. President Jimmy Carter and polio vaccine developer Jonas Salk.
