On March 16, The Rotary Foundation (TRF) Chair Scott Larson recognized Matthew Scheef as Paul Harris Fellow +2 and his daughter Harlow Scheef as Paul Harris Fellow. Matthew works at Eakes Office Plus and joined Rotary in August of 2007 and has served as Director 2015-17. Harlow Scheef is only in Kindergarten and she is the youngest to be awarded the Paul Harris Fellow this year. Their combined contribution of $4,000 to TRF will help in eradicating polio and support TRF's priorities in fighting disease, providing clean water, supporting education, maternal health, growing local economy, fighting disease, and protecting the environment.
Thank you, Matthew and Harlow, for your generosity!
