Did you know August is Membership and New Club Development Month?

August is Membership Month, which means it’s time to celebrate your Rotary Club, your members, and the good you do in your community and around the world.
There are many ways to join in the celebration, but here are a few activities to get you started:

1. Say it loud, say it proud! Let everyone in your social network know that you are a proud member by changing your Twitter and Facebook profile to the I’m a Proud Member, I’m a Proud Rotaractor, or I’m a Proud Interactor graphic. Copy and save the graphic as your profile picture for August.

 
2. Watch and share. Download RI President Stephanie Urchick’s video on membership. Watch it at your next meeting or club event to highlight the vital role membership plays in maintaining a strong and active club. 
 

3. Exchange ideas. Do you have successful membership strategies that have worked well in your community? Share them at the District's Membership Committee meeting (starting in August).

4. We Are Rotary. Using the hashtag #WeAreRotary, post photos to Facebook, "X", Instagram, or LinkedIn of your club members at work in your community or abroad to show how Rotary makes a positive impact in the world.

5. It’s Now or Never. Join us on our monthly Simply Irresistible series on membership. It is scheduled every month and it is followed up with a "discussion cafe" on putting the actions into practice.

6. Making a difference. Rotary clubs are known for the high-impact service projects they undertake locally and globally. Share stories about your service projects and how they improve lives with the District newsletter and on Facebook, "X", Instagram, and LinkedIn. 

7. What does Rotary mean to you? Rotary members have pushed polio to the brink of eradication, delivered clean water to those in need, improved their local communities, provided scholarships to the next generation of peacemakers, and continued to do good in the world.

Let's Celebrate Rotary, together!
