Paul Harris Fellows were recently recognized by Mike Mallahan and Becky Porter.

Contributions to Rotary Foundation funds enable Rotarians to carry out humanitarian and educational projects.  Donors may direct their gifts to three main funds: the Annual Fund, which supports the Foundation’s humanitarian, educational, and cultural exchange programs worldwide; the Endowment Fund; and the PolioPlus Fund.  Donors of $1,000 or more to any of these funds are recognized as Paul Harris Fellows.

The Community Service Committee presented $1,000 in support of the Town Center's Summer Concert Series and $500 to the Everett School District PTA's Shoes for Kids program.

Community Service Co- Chairman Barb Athanas presented the checks.  Accepting was Michelle Nims for both organizations.

The Rotary Club of Mill Creek supported a young medical student's passion in 2009.  His name is Brian Goff Smith. 

While studying to become doctor at East Tennessee State University, he formed a non-profit organization to help the indigenous population in Guatemala by building a clinic in the village of Chisec, Alta Verapaz, which is located 286km north of Guatemala City. 

The student Brian Smith is now Dr. Brian Smith.  His blog (Chila Project) can be found on Rotary's website at the top of the page or on the left hand side.

Barb Athanas, Co-Chair of the Community Service Committee presented checks to the City of Mill Creeks Parks and Recreation Program and the Mill Creek Senior Center.  The $1,000 donation to each organization represents our ongoing support within the community.
