I hope this email finds you well. I wanted to pass on the following information to all of you in preparation for World Interact Week 2020.
Join the virtual World Interact Week party to celebrate the power of Interact, featuring a special guest appearance, exciting new announcements, and an opportunity to connect with Interactors around the world.
In addition to joining the virtual party, take action with your Interact club with these ideas to celebrate World Interact Week:
1. Share your best service project or leadership development activity in the 2020 Interact Awards. This year, Rotary is accepting videos, photos, and essays as part of the Interact Awards. Learn more and nominate your Interact club by 1 December 2020. (http://on.rotary.org/2020InteractAwards)
2. Plan a service project or celebration with your sponsor Rotary club and local Rotaract club. Check out these ideas to plan service projects and club meetings virtually. (http://my.rotary.org/learn?deep-link=https%3A//learn.rotary.org/members/learn/dashboard/channel/67)
3. Work with your sponsor club to complete a certificate of recognition to highlight the positive impact during World Interact Week. Remember, social media promotion of a World Interact Week activity by your Interact club is an optional goal towards achieving the Rotary Citation for Interact Clubs. Use this worksheet to track your progress toward the Rotary Citation for Interact Clubs throughout the year. (https://my-cms.rotary.org/.../rotary-citation-goals-and...)
Share your celebrations with #WorldInteractWeek and RSVP to the event for the most up-to-date events calendar and for access to live virtual events throughout the week.
Please email (mncruz10@gmail.com) or call/text (562.303.4711) me with any questions.
Serve, lead, and/or connect with us!
