DISTRICT 9465 & PR - TELLING YOUR ROTARY STORY
DG Jodie has been working hard in the District to ensure both a good retention rate of members
and recruiment of new members. The district has a strong PR committee who have worked along
side DG Jodie to increase the methods in which our Rotarians can share/tell their story.
Two facebook seminars have been held to show Rotarians how to tell their story using this medium.
The seminars were a success, shown by the increase in the number of clubs having an online pres-
ence.
The district successfully applied for an RI PR Grant to allow the district to have standard marketing
that the clubs could utilise. They have put together some promotional materials for Clubs in our dis-
trict to use within the community to promote Rotary and the great work we do.
All 51 clubs have been given a ‘PR Kit’, which contains Posters, DL Brochures & a ‘What is Rotary’
card. (See below for samples).
