June Top Ten: Ways to Make Every Day "Add an Altrusan Day"

From our fabulous Membership Development Committee comes this month's Top Ten list:

Ways to Make Every Day "Add an Altrusan Day"

  1. Wear your Altrusa pin every day for a month, and have your elevator speech ready!
  2. Write your own Top Ten list about why you love being an Altrusan, and post it to your Facebook page. (It is Facebook Friday, after all!)
  3. Choose someone from your office to invite to your next meeting or service project, and keep going until you get a "YES!"
  4. Make donations to the International (or your Club) Foundation in honor of friends' and family's birthdays and other special occasions.
  5. Add a great Altrusa signature to your personal email.
  6. Create an "Altrusa" board on your Pinterest account, and pin great ideas for service projects, meeting decorations, or anything else that sparks your fancy.
  7. Look up old friends and make an Altrusa meeting or other event the place where you reconnect.
  8. Ask your spouse to invite a potential Altrusan to join you at the next meeting.
  9. Put a collection box--for pop tabs, books, toys, or whatever your Club is collecting--in your office at work with a sign that clearly shows Altrusa.
  10. Have Altrusa business cards made, and give them to every person you meet for the first time.
Do you have an idea individual members can use to make every day "Add an Altrusan Day"? Send them to Governor Beth. And keep your eyes open for a kit of materials that will help you plan for and celebrate "Add an Altrusan Month" (April) like never before.
