UN Days 2020 – Measuring our Impact

We have chosen four of the UN Days around which we will create a toolkit to be used by Clubs. Do get involved on social media to raise awareness and get our voices heard. Use our suggested messages and add your own photos of your members doing the equal sign.

The four days that have been chosen in 2020 are: International Women’s Day, World Environment Day, SIGBI Day of Action and 16 Days of Activism.

We will create a toolkit for you to use for each of these four days, and after the event we will circulate a survey asking for you to submit your social media stats. Instructions on how to do this will be included.

Do join in. Let us know how many people you reached, and let’s tally up the total reach for SIGBI for each special day.

International Volunteers Week 2020

This year, National Volunteers’ Week is running from Monday 1^st June to Sunday 7^th June.

Here is another opportunity to celebrate your volunteering work, sharing your stories on your websites and through social media channels. Whether you’re volunteering to support the NHS, other organisations or charities, or you are volunteering in your local community or supporting an international project, tell your story and use the logo and the hashtag #Soroptimistsvolunteer. If you tag us in on Facebook Soroptimist International GBI and on Twitter @SIGBI1 we will like, share and retweet too. And make sure you do the same for all the other posts you see from other Clubs, let’s let everyone know #Soroptimistsvolunteer. There are two versions of the logo below which you can use with your posts.

World Environment Day 2020

World Environment Day is on 5 June 2020. Soroptimist International Great Britain and Ireland (SIGBI) have provided social media messages for Clubs/Regions/NAs/Networks and Members to use throughout this day. The theme is #ForNature, and two images are also provided for you to include with your social media posts. We will not circulate a survey on this occasion to evaluate the reach.

We encourage Soroptimists everywhere to create their social media posts using the bespoke messages that we have produced, tailored for Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, and adding a photograph of themselves doing the Equal Sign, using the frames provided (as in the example shown) – simply use PowerPoint or Publisher to add your photograph. You can also use any of the pictures that are in our Flickr album.

The hashtags to use are #SoroptimistsStandUpforWomen, #EachforEqual, #GenerationEquality

Use the press release to let your local media know about your campaign.
