Subject: I’m a Rotarian inviting your club to follow my club on this new initiative.
Hi there,
Our club is delighted to be one of the early sign ups on Plastic Free Oceans. Here is our page: www.plasticfreeoceans.net/rotaryclubofcorrimal
I am contacting you to encourage your club to sign up. It is an easy way for all our clubs to be involved in this important issue. And we hope sharing with the community it will attract new members.
Here is the information www.plasticfreeoceans.org/youin/inforotary/ In a club meeting please play the video at the bottom of that page – that will give members a clear understanding. Then get a person in your club, perhaps the one responsible for your website and/or Facebook page, to start your club’s page. Oh! And please click Follow to our page.
May I ask you to reply and tell me how your club felt about the idea. I’d love to see clubs all around the world popping up on Plastic Free Oceans.
If anyone in your club would like to volunteer a few hours to help us get this message – like I am doing now – please ask them to send their contact details to me.
Regards
