Learn about the Rotary Foundation with Kay Williamson and Cheryl Greenway

The Rotary Foundation helps Rotary members to advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace by improving health, providing quality education, improving the environment, and alleviating poverty. Since it was founded more than 100 years ago, the Foundation has spent more than US$6.5 billion on life-changing, sustainable projects.

Board Member Spotlight
Gabriel Prado-International Committee Chair


Originally from the Deep South—Argentina!—Gabriel is proud to call America home. His journey has been shaped by faith, family, hard work, gratitude, and a deep appreciation for the opportunities this country has provided.

Professionally, Gabriel serves as Head of Supplier Performance and Commercial Management at Fluence, bringing experience in global business, commercial management, and building strong partnerships. He holds a Global Business Executive MBA from Georgia Tech and a Master's Certificate in Commercial Contract Management from Villanova University.

Beyond his career, Gabriel is passionate about serving others and making a positive impact in his community. As a member of the Roswell Rotary Club, he believes that service is not just something we do, but a reflection of who we are.

Argentine by birth, an American by choice, and southern by the Grace of God, and above all, someone who believes in giving back.

His personal motto is simple: Never forget where you came from, be grateful for where you are, and always find a way to serve others.
