"WOMEN IN ROTARY" SUMMIT TO TAKE PLACE OCTOBER 13TH
As we consider ways we should Grow Rotary, we must consider groups that are underrepresented within our clubs. Women represent just 28% of our District’s membership. How can we grow these numbers and attract more members including women into the service we provide to our community AND to our members.
On October 13th from 7:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m., Rotary District 7390 will host the second in a series of Summits to discuss Women in Rotary
Three Questions will be discussed in this 1 hour Zoom Summit.
How can we encourage more women to join Rotary across our District?
How can we support female Rotarians in growing in leadership and service within Rotary and our communities?
What should our next action steps be?
Women in Rotary Summit can be a tremendous opportunity for fellowship, growth, and new ideas.
