Getting to Know You
Charlie Augello, #1 Deli and #1 Community Servant
Thirty eight years ago, Charlie and Anita Augello opened E 48th Street Market in Dunwoody. Fast forward to today, and they're not just running Georgia's Best Deli (as recognized by Taste of Home) – they are pillars of our community!
Charlie first became aware of Rotary while in high school and then shortly after he started his restaurant, a couple customers invited him to attend a Rotary meeting. Back then, he was focused on his new business and couldn't commit to joining a club. By 2009 the restaurant was established, and he was looking to get involved in a way that gives back to the community that has been such a part of his success.
His favorite activity through the years
has been working with USO and then more recently helping to start Anchor Place
Respite Dunwoody. He especially likes how the finances support local and also international causes and recognizes that through Rotary, your donation dollars go a
long way. Charlie likes the social events and hopes the club continues to find
reasons to get together for dinners and other events.
In recognition of their incredible
contributions, club president Jack Sparks created the "Charlie and Anita
Augello People of Action Award" in June 2024. This annual award will
celebrate members who passionately improve Dunwoody and the world.
Service and Fellowship
