Congratulations Jeff Penza for your 2nd Paul Harris award from Baltimore Rotary! 

The Paul Harris Fellowship Award is one of the highest honors Rotary can bestow upon a person. Recipients are Rotarians and community professionals, in recognition of their outstanding contributions, exemplifying the highest ideal in Rotary in placing “SERVICE ABOVE SELF.” This honor accompanies a donation of $1,000 or more, in the recipient’s name, to Rotary International’s “Annual Program Fund,” which supports Rotary’s world-wide programs.

• Raises and donates more than $100,000 to local organizations that improve the lives of Baltimore residents;
• Sponsors youth programs, summer camps, scholarships, and other initiatives;
• Provides professional expertise to Baltimore non-profits to help them grow, thrive, spread their message and achieve their goals;
