Purpose of the Award: This award was established by the Trustees of the Rotary Foundation in order to recognize outstanding contributions to the effort by Rotarians and thereby to encourage final efforts. Applications are due by October 1.
Service to be Recognized: Active personal service is required by the prospective recipient of the award. Personal financial contributions, however noteworthy, are not a basis for the award. Outstanding service in the field of advocacy, however, is not precluded as a consideration for the award. Fundraising efforts that support Rotary’s PolioPlus program may be considered in the evaluation of nominees for the award.
Period of Service: Service which has occurred since November 1, 1992 is recognizable.
