Rotary Day of Giving -- Meals of Hope
Join us on May 16th for our first annual Rotary Day of Giving. Clubs across the district will come together to package thousands of meals for families in need. You do not want to miss this!
 
We are adding a fun North vs South showdown at Peabody High School, North location and East Boston High School, South location. Trophy on the line. Bragging rights included. No limit on clubs. Teams of 7-8 per table - all ages welcome!  Sign up details coming soon.
 
Main packing runs 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM, with a few volunteers at 8:00 AM for setup and a few staying until 12:00 PM for breakdown.
Participation is $1,000 per club. For reference, a $500 sponsorship typically provides about 1,500 meals. Sponsorship recognition will be printed on the meal packaging, offering great visibility. Clubs can fundraise or secure sponsors.  All meals go directly to your club’s chosen community partner.
 
Grab your team, bring the energy, and let’s see which side takes home the trophy 😉

Membership Seminar Dazzles Participants
Clubs from all over District 7930 came together last Saturday, March 28, for the Online District Membership Seminar. We shared lively conversations about attracting the next generation of members, community involvement, flexibility, social media, the added value of satellite clubs, and putting sparkle into club meetings.
 
Many thanks to everyone who participated to make the seminar a success and thanks to our facilitators: Kim Bohlen, Ann Ormond, Al Ruthazer, Lindsay St. Pierre, and Steve Upton. Let’s meet again soon!

Have You Made Your Annual Fund Contribution Yet?
Contributions to The Rotary Foundation support efforts to build stronger, healthier, and more peaceful communities. The Foundation's work would not be possible without the financial support of members and friends of Rotary.
 
Why give?  You can feel good about giving to Rotary. Our Foundation is a world-class organization that is active in nearly every country and takes the stewardship of its funds very seriously. More than 90% of every donation is spent on our service projects, programs, scholarships, and operations.
 
The Rotary Foundation is recognized as one of the most effective and well-managed charitable organizations in the world, with 13 consecutive four-star ratings from Charity Navigator and a grade of A+ from Charity Watch. 
 
Your contributions make it possible for The Rotary Foundation to offer a variety of grants that help fund local and international humanitarian projects, programs, scholarships, and vocational training teams. Through those, you support peacebuilding and conflict prevention; disease prevention and treatment; water, sanitation, and hygiene; maternal and child health; basic education and literacy; community economic development; and the environment.

How's Your Club's Public Image Doing?
Promote your Rotary Club’s Public Image.  A strong and vibrant Public Image is one of 2 proven key tactics for successful and growing clubs -- the other is a large number of service projects.  Effective Public Image helps expand your reach and artfully tell compelling stories that demonstrate Rotarians as people of action.   The Public Image Committee’s role is to help clubs to have a robust media and social media strategy, an up-to-date website and an engaging online presence in their local communities.
 
We suggest all clubs engage on social media to boost your Public Image.  Social media (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, etc.) provide streamlined opportunity to get your stories out there.  The various platforms can provide a direct way to push your news to the public.  Here are some tips to think about.
 
How can my club boost our Public Image?
