Congratulations to Rotary District 5150 Rotarian of the Month for January 2022, Kay Auciello from the Rotary Club for Fisherman’s Wharf.
 
Kay Auciello joined the Rotary Club of Fisherman's Wharf in 2012 and has given of her time, talent, and treasure ever since.

Kay consistently volunteers for the club's quarterly service projects, which have included Saturday workdays with the Golden Gate Recreation Area, litter pickups in the Fisherman's Wharf neighborhood and downtown San Francisco as well as helping serve community Thanksgiving dinners at Tel Hi Neighborhood Center. Her great passions are delivering dictionaries annually to 3rd graders at three San Francisco elementary schools and judging applicants/awarding college scholarships sponsored by our club. She recently volunteered as a judge for Galileo High School's "Spirit Yell" competition, describing it as "incredible and so much fun!"

Kay was Club President for the 2018-2019 year. She continues to serve as Program Chair, a difficult post she's graciously held for at least five years. Twice a month, Kay manages to secure interesting, informative, and often entertaining speakers on a wide variety of topics.

The Rotary Foundation has recognized Kay as EREY eligible annually since 2013, as Sustaining Member eligible since 2014, for TRF giving since 2015, and as Paul Harris Society eligible since 2018.  She initially became a Paul Harris Fellow in 2016, and in 2020 Kay reached PHF+8 status at the Major Donor Level.
 
Co-presidents Erik Scheller and Aline Estournes agree when they say, “Without Kay’s involvement and willingness to help out, our club would not be as active and engaged as it is.  She is quick to volunteer, take on tasks and projects, and support the Rotary mission.”
 
Once again, congratulations to Kay Auciello from the Rotary Club for Fisherman’s Wharf as our Rotary District 5150 Rotarian of the Month for January 2022!
