The Fayetteville Rotary Club has honored Cumberland County Schools’ Social Work Coordinator Pamela Story as a Paul Harris Fellow, one of Rotary’s highest honors awarded to individuals whose service reflects the heart of Rotary’s mission.
Story was recognized for her many years of assistance and collaboration in identifying Cumberland County students for participation in the Rotary Youth Leadership Awards. For nearly 20 years, she has collaborated with the Fayetteville Rotary Club to provide leadership training opportunities for students.
“Through her dedication, Pamela Story has helped connect us (Fayetteville Rotary Club) with high school SGA advisors,” said Rotarian Dave Baggett during the presentation of the award on May 8, according to a news release. “Because of her efforts, we have been able to support deserving students for Rotary Youth Leadership Awards, helping shape future leaders across our community.”
The presentation of Paul Harris Fellow recognition is the Rotary Foundation’s way of expressing its appreciation for a substantial contribution to its humanitarian and educational programs. Named for Rotary founder Paul Harris, rotarians designate a Paul Harris Fellow as a tribute to a person whose life demonstrates a shared purpose with the objectives of The Rotary Foundation.
“Pam Story’s impact is woven into the lives of students, counselors, educators and families throughout Cumberland County,” said Baggett in a press release. “Her service reminds us that true leadership is often quiet, humble and profoundly transformative, and her work has changed lives, strengthened our schools and uplifted our entire community.”
