Paul Harris "Plus" Rotary Foundation pins awarded to four members

by Gillian Bradshaw

Congratulations and thanks to Kris Khurana, Mary Mar, Austin Wall, and Marla Noel for their generous contributions to The Rotary Foundation.

This is how Rotary International obtains funding for global projects, where clubs partner up on projects to provide water, healthcare, education and much more to those in need.

All four of these individuals received "plus" pins, joining many of our other members who have received these awards. When a donation of $1000 is made to the Foundation, that person becomes a Paul Harris Fellow. For every $1,000 after that, they receive a "Paul Harris Plus" pin. Several of our members are at least at the Plus 4 level!

Last year, the Irvine Spectrum Rotary Club was #2 in the District for per capita giving, and we are working on becoming the #1 club this year!

Thanks to our dedicated members for helping to make this happen!
