Maribeth PHF

The Paul Harris Fellowship is named for Paul Harris, who founded Rotary with 3 business associates in Chicago in 1905.

The Fellowship was established in his honour in 1957. It expresses appreciation for contributions to the humanitarian and educational programs of The Rotary Foundation which include an array of projects that save and invigorate the lives of people around the world and enhance international friendship and understanding.

As Rotarians of the Rotary Club of Festival City Stratford we can designate a Paul Harris Fellow to recognize a member whose life demonstrates a shared purpose with the objectives and mission of The Rotary Foundation to build world understanding and peace.

Maribeth Youngblut, you are being recognized as a Paul Harris Fellow in special appreciation for the ways in which your life exemplifies the humanitarian and educational objectives of The Rotary Foundation.

You have given these gifts not only to your family, but to those who surround you, your friends and your community.

You have given them unselfishly, with unconditional love and a commitment to help others despite your many challenges

Your determination and strength have been an inspiration to us all. We are better persons because of you.

You are being designated to receive this recognition by Dianne Yundt.

Therefore, it is with great pleasure we present to you on behalf of the Trustees of The Rotary Foundation, these emblems of PHF, the certificate and a lapel pin. The certificate states that you have been named a PHF “in understanding and friendly relations between peoples of the world”.

Congratulations!
