The District 9930 Website fulfills two essential functions:-
The website is the "Face of the District". It is where interested visitors can find extensive information about Rotary and the through the efforts of Rotarians, Rotary Clubs, and many programmes of District 9930.
-
The website provides support and administrative functions for the district and its clubs. It is a central database for the member records of all clubs which is automatically synced with the Rotary International database. We website provides information and contact details about every club, about district programmes, and The Rotary Foundation. It is a source of regular news updates and it provides current news and information about activities in the district. It is a communications instrument between the district and its members. And it serves as a contact directory for all district and club leaders.
Designing and maintaining a website that fulfills these functions is a big job, and as with almost all other functions of the district the operation of the district website is performed by volunteers.
