Nasrin Barbee - Multiple Paul Harris Fellow

Congratulations to Nasrin Barbee for achieving her fourth Paul Harris fellowship! In addition to being the most prolific fundraiser in the Rancho Bernardo Sunrise Rotary club, Nasrin has personally donated $4,000 to the Rotary Foundation. Every member of her family is also a Paul Harris Fellow.

Interacters get scholarships

RYLA alumni Kate Anderson and Leanna Hansen joined us at breakfast this morning at the Country Club of Rancho Bernardo. Each received a $750 Interact scholarship.

This fall Leanna will be attending Montana State University as an enrollee in their honors college with a triple major in Neuroscience, Cell Biology and Community Health. She was the Interact Communications Officer for the past two years at Scripps Ranch HS, and also won the RB Sunrise Rotary 4-way test competition.

Kate is attending the University of Colorado (Boulder), where she will be majoring in Integrated Physiology, minoriing in Spanish, and expects to earn an Advanced Degree in Physical Therapy. During the last two years Kates served as Junior President and then President of the Scripps Ranch Interact Club. Over the past two summers she was also a Rotary Exchange student in both Germany and Italy.
