Dr. Jeff Gamblin Recognized as Paul Harris Fellow

Posted by Bill Osborne on Dec 08, 2016

Rotary Club of North Jackson member Tag Gamblin honored his son, Dr. Jeff Gamblin, with a donation in his honor to the Rotary Foundation making Dr. Gamblin a Paul Harris Fellow.

The Paul Harris Fellow recognition acknowledges individuals who contribute, or who have contributions made in their name, of US$1,000 to The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International.

It was established in 1957 to show appreciation for and encourage substantial contributions to what was then the Foundation’s only program, Rotary Foundation Fellowships for Advanced Study, the precursor to Ambassadorial Scholarships. The number of Paul Harris fellows exceeded the one million mark in 2006. The accompanying photo is of Mr. Gamblin (standing, left) and Dr. Gamblin (standing, right)during the recognition ceremony. The certificate is being presented by club member Virginia Carlton (standing, center). Congratulations to Dr. Gamblin and sincere thanks to his father for honoring his son.
