The Paul Harris Society recognizes Rotary members and friends of The Rotary Foundation who elect to contribute $1,000 or more each year to the Annual Fund, PolioPlus Fund, or approved global grants. “Without the Foundation, there would be no Rotary, says Paul Harris Society Founder Wayne Cusick. That is why the Paul Harris Society was founded.
