The very spirit of Dr. John Judson was service!
The Judson Fellowship, named in memory of the late Rotarian John J. Judson, MD, aims to cultivate a membership that reflects the diversity of the Harrisburg community we are dedicated to serving. This annual Fellowship awards the selected candidate a club membership at no charge for one year. Nominations should be submitted for individuals who are not yet members but have the potential to sustain their club membership beyond the end of the Fellowship year. The nomination process requires each proposed fellow to fill out the application for review by the board of directors. A letter of recommendation by the proposing Rotarian is welcome but not necessary. The selection of the Judson Fellow takes place during the June Board meeting, and their membership commences with the start of the Rotary year on July 1st. Congratulations to the 2023 - 2024 Judson Fellowship Awardees  Samara Scott Beahive Affordable Housing Outreach, Inc.  Nzenalu Obinelo Vista Autisim Services, Inc. |
