20. Why Have a Valid Email I’D?

21. Why Have a Valid Email I’D?
You will not be able to create a My Rotary account without a Valid and Functional id as well as have the account verified.
Without having an active account on My Rotary you will not be able to update your profile, intimate your skills and interests in your My Rotary profile and unlock that section to make it visible on their public profiles – This is one of the perquisites for qualifying for the RI Citation.
You also will not be able to receive your Login Credentials to access the restricted members section on the District Website.
You will not be able to register online for District Events.
You will loose out on important District Communications as, this year we are striving to go 100% paperless as regards Communications.

22. Why Have a Website?
Having a website gives your Club a massive amount of exposure.
If a Club doesn’t have a website it loses credibility. All of the big Clubs can be found online.
Once you’ve created your Club website it is there 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. It’s like a constant advertising platform.
You can showcase current and past projects.
Helps Brand Building. There are numerous ways to build it up, but the internet is one of the most effective.
Having a website is not that expensive. In reality it provides much cheaper and more effective advertising than any offline media.
