The Paul Harris Fellow recognition acknowledges individuals who contribute, or who have contributions made in their name, of $1,000 or more to the Annual Fund, PolioPlus or an approved grant of The Rotary Foundation. The recognition is not limited to Rotarians.
Rotary established the recognition in 1957 to encourage and show appreciation for substantial contributions to what was then the Foundation’s only program, Rotary Foundation Fellowships for Advanced Study, the precursor to Ambassadorial Scholarships.
The number of Paul Harris Fellows reached the 1 million mark in 2006.
