Club members offered congratulations to Brookings Rotarian Ginger Thomson, left, who received her Paul Harris Fellow-Plus 1 pin at a recent club meeting, presented by club president Jennifer Olson.
A Paul Harris Fellow is one who has donated at least $1,000 to The Rotary Foundation, or for whom someone else has donated $1,000 in his or her name. Those who have achieved Paul Harris Plus status reflect the $1,000 donation repeated in subsequent years.
Donations to TRF go to help with projects in one of seven areas of global and community service: promoting peace; fighting disease; providing clean water, sanitation, and hygiene; saving mothers and children; supporting education; growing local economies; and protecting the environment.
