Each year our club recognizes one or two individual members for their outstanding service above self.  Recipients are chosen by a committee of past members who have also received an Honorary Paul Harris Fellow Award from the club.
 
Congratulations to Ruth Domack who was honored by the club on Saturday, March 21, 2015 with her first Honorary Paul Harris Award.  
 
 Some things you may or may not know about Ruth:
  • Joined the club in 2008
  • served on the Board of Directors for 2 years
  • contributes to The Rotary Foundation
  • Actively participates in fundraisers and goes above and beyond the normal call of duty
  • Well educated and holds 2 degrees including an MBA from the University of Madison
  • Successful local realtor
  • Demonstrates service above self consistently by stepping up and gets jobs done!
  • She has a good sense of humor, a positive outlook on life, and she is down to earth.
  • Demonstrates good leadership and negotiation skills.
  • She is an asset to this club and our members.
  • She is a cog in the Rotary wheel and she propels this club forward.
  • She is our Club Secretary.
This year we selected two recipients to receive an Honorary Paul Harris Fellow Award.  One member could not attend the Spring Social.  That person will receive the recognition at a future club meeting.
 
Rotarians who contribute $1,000 to The Rotary Foundation can earn their own Paul Harris Fellow pin.  This contribution can be over time (several years).  There is no time limit on your contributions.  For each $1,000 donated a member can earn a new pin PHF +1, +2, +3 etc… 
 
Giving is easy.  You can sign up for Rotary Direct and give on a recurring basis (month, quarterly, or annually) and the donations are taken from you credit or debit card.  If you give $50 per quarter, in 5 years, you would earn a Paul Harris Fellow.
 
The Rotary Foundation is different and separate from the Madison West Towne-Middleton Rotary Foundation which is our club’s own foundation, not to be confused with TRF (The Rotary Foundation).
