Congratulations to Stephanie Deckro on a milestone that is not easily achieved. She received a Paul Harris plus 4 pin from Chairman Phil Renkes. The Paul Harris Society, named for Rotary’s founder,is made up of dedicated supporters who annually contribute $1,000 or more to the Annual Fund, PolioPlus, or an approved Rotary Foundation grant. Stephanie has achieved this level 5 times. Her contributions have helped achieve the following milestones:
 

With her gift she is promoting peace, fighting disease, providing clean water, saving mothers and children, supporting education, and growing local economies through grants that:

  • Bring peace-building seminars to 200 teachers and 1,300 students in Uganda.
  • Distribute insecticide-treated mosquito nets and medical services that help prevent malaria in Mali.
  • Train teachers who are establishing an early childhood education center in South Africa.
  • Provide water filters, toilet blocks, and hygiene training to prevent fluorosis in a community in India.
  • Fund a scholarship for a medical professional to research treatment to minimize mortality rates among premature babies in Italy.
  • Protect children around the world from polio.
Thanks again Stephanie!
