Activity Update: July 2010

Welcome to our first activity update for 2010.

For your interest, I have included two new links to our newly developed social networking page on Facebook and two further links to our new YouTube and Twitter accounts.

The aim of these accounts is four-fold:

to increase the profile of RAM in the community;

to bring greater awareness of malaria as the world’s leading preventable disease;

to promote communication and publicise RAM’s ongoing endeavours; and

to provide fundraising and volunteering opportunities.

Below you will find links to our accounts. We hope you will forward them to your friends and colleagues and become a ‘friend/fan’ of the page and ‘follow us’ on Twitter.

With your help we can get the word out!

Just click here to go direct to the Facebook page:

RAM D9810 is also now on Twitter:

‘Follow us’ for up to the minute information on RAM events, programmes and the latest information.

STOP PRESS: NEW MALARIA AWARENESS PROMOTION DVD

RAM D9810 have also developed a five minute malaria awareness promotion DVD for distribution on YouTube, Facebook and other relevant sites. Please feel free to show it at your club too!
