Morris, 33, becomes GB Rotary's youngest president
Morris The 35th president of the Gulf Breeze Rotary Club (GBRC), Charles Dana Morris, 33, is the youngest president in its history.
Morris graduated from Gulf Breeze High School in 1993 and from Florida State University in 1996 with B.S. in Political Science, and his Juris Doctorate in 2000 from the Cumberland School of Law at Samford University.
An Assistant Attorney General, Office of the Attorney General of the State of Florida, Morris is assigned to the Medicaid Fraud Division where he prosecutes Medicaid fraud, elder abuse, neglect and exploitation cases within the First Judicial Circuit.
Morris said he plans to build on years of club success, and has also added some new goals.
"I would really like to see the club raise a minimum of $1,000 for Polio Plus, a Rotary International (RI) project to complete the years-long effort to eliminate Polio cases around the world in three years," Morris said. " I also hope the club will fund a full $2,500 scholarship for one year for a candidate to attend the Police Academy. We have planned a Web page for the GBRC with links to Rotary International."
Morris said a club focus in Peru and Honduras will be expanded to include education to fight child mortality.
"The board has approved a budget that includes supporting the new programs and the successful programs of the past," said Morris. ROTARY BOARD
