The Paul Harris Fellowship is a humanitarian honour of recognition awarded by a Rotary Club via The Rotary Foundation.

This recognition is available to both Rotarians and non-Rotarians and honours an individual’s contribution towards their local community, their country and indeed the world as they strive through their unselfish efforts to improve the circumstances of their fellow man.

Rotary Clubs donate the equivalent of US$1000 to The Rotary Foundation which then further assists Rotary with its own humanitarian efforts with the goal of better understanding and friendly relations amongst peoples of the world.

Recipients are presented with a certificate of recognition together with a Paul Harris Fellow lapel pin.

Some people receive multiple Paul Harris Fellow Recognitions as they continue with their contribution to society over many years.
