Congratulations to Brookings Rotarians Victoria Blatchford and Ginger Thomson, who received their Paul Harris Fellow-Plus pins at a recent club meeting, presented by Club President Jennifer Olson. Victoria received her Plus-2 pin and Ginger received her Plus-1 pin. A Paul Harris Fellow is one who has donated at least $1,000 to The Rotary Foundation (TRF), 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; Savings Mothers and Children; Supporting Education; Growing Local Economies; and Protecting the Environment.
