Membership Recruitment vs. Retention

We continue to try and recruit new members and grow our clubs as well as face as the ongoing challenge of current members. Whereas recruiting new members is important to the development of the club, how important is it to retain current members? A debatable topic, while some persist that recruiting new members is more important, others maintain that retention is more critical.
 
A common thought process among club officers is that if we are not attracting new members, then the possibility of our club surviving in the long run is low. Although growing the club is important, it is equally as vital to maintain your current membership and foster the relationship between club officers and these members as they are a great resource to stimulate the growth of the club. In the ongoing debate about recruitment vs. retention, we side with retention.

Rotary Foundation Thought

 


 

This week’s Rotary Foundation Thought is about Every Rotarian, Every Year.

"The Rotary Foundation enables clubs all over the world to develop and accomplish self-sustaining projects that change lives and change the world for the better. When you support The Rotary Foundation‘s Every Rotarian, Every Year initiative, you personally help fund one of those life-changing projects. Support your Rotary Foundation! Advance world understanding and peace. … It‘s a role you were born to play!" — Past District Governor Mike Montgomery, District 5030

The ABC's of Rotary
 
 
 

The Secretariat

Many Rotarians consider the Secretariat simply another name for the RI World Headquarters in Evanston, Illinois, USA. Actually, it is much more. While it does include the World Headquarters, the Secretariat encompasses more than 600 individuals working to make Rotary International run smoothly and effectively. The term describes the entire operations of the general secretary and his staff. The Secretariat also includes seven RI International Offices (formerly called service centers) around the world, all of the staff serving in those offices, as well as all staff assigned to The Rotary Foundation. Its sole purpose is to serve the clubs, districts, and administrative officers of Rotary International and The Rotary Foundation. RI World Headquarters, in a building called One Rotary Center in Evanston, is the headquarters of the Secretariat.

Opportunities to give service

 

 

 

The club has fundraisers and service events coming up!

Give our Club all the support you can to make it successful.  We need all cylinders firing!!!  Please do what you can to serve our club.  If you not being asked to serve the club, ask where you can help!

Participate in Every Rotarian Every Year.  Any amount you can contribute will help the success of Rotary International in your community and around the world.  Let's try to become a 100% EREY club, where every member contributes something to the Rotary Foundation, either directly or through the club.

Think of another way in which you could serve our club, or help a committee chair with some of their responsibilities.  Abby and Kathy are assembling the team for this Rotary year.  Help them in any way that you can, even if you have not been asked.

Participation is the key to an effective club!!!!

Serve Early, Serve Often!
