The Rotary Club of Abbotsford has presented the prestigious Paul Harris Fellowship to two individuals.
Club president Stacey Irwin recently presented the award to Tim Phillips of Berry Hill Foods and Chris Dominato, vice president of finance for Woodtone Industries.
“Both Tim and Chris demonstrate the very ‘heart’ of Rotary and are shining examples of good people who are contributing greatly to our community to help make our communities a better place for all to live,” Irwin said.
Phillips, nominated by past president Sara Lawson, received the award in recognition of his “service above self” approach to his work and giving back to the community.
As a newly adopted member of the Rotary Club of Abbotsford, he and Berry Hill Foods are continuing to expand their commitment.
Dominato – the newest director on the Abbotsford Police Board – was nominated by past president Leslie McConnell.
He received the award for exemplifying the spirit of giving, community involvement and representing an organization where giving back to the community is important.
Woodtone’s corporate culture includes being donors of a large playhouse to help raise funds for the Starfish Pack Program to feed hungry school kids in Abbotsford.
