Congratulations to Westbrook-Gorham Rotary Club member Henry Saunders.  At his first meeting after his return from Florida, via Texas, he was recognized with the prestigious Paul Harris Award.  He recently achieved PHF+2.
 
 
Paul Harris Fellow recognition is given to individuals who contribute $1,000 or more cumulatively to the Rotary Foundation. Multiple Paul Harris Fellow recognition is given at subsequent $1,000 levels.
 
Henry has been a longtime supporter of the Rotary Foundation, honoring both his brother Don and his late wife Marjorie with Paul Harris Fellows in past years. His chief area of interest has been the eradication of polio around the world.  During the presentation, he spoke about the scourge of polio that he witnessed as a child. How it impacted friends, neighbors, and fellow students. It was even dangerous to swim at the Cornelia Warren pool, then located at the edge of the Presumpscot River.
 
Thanks to Henry for supporting the great work of our Foundation.  We have never been closer to the complete eradication of polio.
