District Governor Dave Manzi is happy to invest District 7930 funds back into developing club membership! This month you may notice Rotary in the news and social media...a lot! The Public Image and Membership committees joined up to publish two dozen custom color and black and white ads in local and regional newspapers, including a color ad in the Boston Globe North Saturday edition. Ads were custom designed to fit Rotary's Master Branding, and each ad directed readers to investigate their local club though our District website. The ads specified clubs in the newspapers' distribution areas. A color ad was also placed in the Boston Globe North Sunday edition highlighting our Homelessness and Hunger Initiative (HHI).
 
Additional electronic ads were placed on Facebook and Twitter (with targeted marketing) highlighting: women in Rotary, young professionals, networking opportunities, our Homelessness and Hunger Initiative (HHI), how Rotary supports youth in communities, our event at Fenway on July 8th and how to become part of our "global Rotary family." Already, our first membership ad has had over 10,500 reaches!

Please join us in thanking Wakefield Rotarian Barbara Worley and graphic designer Mark Flaherty for their work in moving this project forward.
