Rocznica Paul'a Harris'a
Paul Harris passed away on this day 79 years ago.
27th January 1947.
What Paul began in Chicago in 1905, has now become the top service organisation in the world with over 1.2 million members from all over the globe, united in service and fellowship.
Following Paul Harris's death in 1947, a memorial fund was established, which evolved into the Paul Harris Fellow recognition program in 1957.
The Fellowship was created as a way to encourage and acknowledge financial support that helps Rotary advance peace, improve health, support education, and grow local economies around the world.
Today, the Paul Harris Fellowship remains one of Rotary’s most respected forms of recognition, symbolising a commitment to Service Above Self and the lasting impact of Rotary’s global work.
I'm proud to be a PHF + 8.
