Read the information below about the District Governor's Paul Harris Challenge.

 

Dear Jerry,
I so enjoyed being with you and your club this week.  I forgot one very important item…my Paul Harris Challenge.  If anyone in your club makes a donation of $100 or more to the Rotary Foundation or Polio Plus in the next couple of weeks, their name will go in a drawing.  In preparation for my DG year, I saved my Paul Harris points.  At the end of the year, I will draw 4 names to receive a Paul Harris award.

I would appreciate it if you would announce this next week and maybe add to your newsletter.  Please just have them let you know if they make a donation in the next couple of weeks.  We use the Four Way Test:). It is a good time since World Polio Day is October 24 so some may want to give to polio.

Thank you, Jerry, for doing this for me.  I am so sorry I did not make this challenge when I was there.

With appreciation,
Barbara
