ROLE OF THE COMMITTEE

This committee focuses on functioning as a resource to the District Governor, the District Executive, and Directors.  The committee develops a quarterly work plan in consultation with District Governor and others in order to promote public awareness of projects and events.

Our Public Image Committee endeavors to help communities understand what Rotary does and how we’re making a difference. The committee promotes Rotary to the public and fosters understanding, appreciation, and support for our programs.

Among other activities this committee's role is to:

  • Contact media with stories of projects and events in the district, and share these stories through social media.

  • Promote the End Polio Now campaign, our areas of focus, grant successes, and alumni activities.

  • Encourage clubs to make public relations outreach a priority.

ROLE OF A CLUB PUBLIC IMAGE COMMITTEE

The role of the club public relations committee is to create and implement a plan to tell Rotary’s story to the public and promote the club’s projects and activities.

Having strong public relations ensures that communities around the world know that Rotary is a credible organization that meets real needs.

When a Rotary club has a positive public image, current members are motivated to be active, and prospective members are eager to join.

Note on Sharing and Promoting Social Media: We encourage Club PI Committees to frequent our District Social Media, 'like' and 'share' posts that are relevant to you, your club and your community.  Please also consider using our shared hashtags in order to have your posts appear in search results.  Here are some suggestions:
