PUBLIC RELATIONS INITIATIVES

As we continue to “Shine a Light on Rotary” throughout this Rotary year—already there are some great initiatives under way by District Clubs. There have been many positive articles in local print media and social media is providing a great avenue to penetrate our Communities and let them know the good things we collectively achieve.

Examples of increased Community penetration (and I am sure there are many more out there).

The Hawkesbury Zone Clubs have joined forces with the Community Radio station FM 89.9 to provide an opportunity to do live broadcasts into the Community.
The Riverside Zone has already a great relationship with 2RRR FM 88.5 for a similar purpose.
The Hills Shire Times has structured a relationship with our local Hills Zone Clubs to provide a regular column in the publication to advertise and promote local events.
I am aware of other Zones collaborating to undertake similar outcomes.

So I urge your Club to identify an opportunity in your Zone/Area to join forces with your Zone Clubs to create this style of exposure – and “Shine a Light on Rotary”

Please let Ian Cameron know of good stories and achievements in the Public Relations Area in your Club or Zone at : publicrelations@rotarydistrict9685.org.au
