Subject: [Chapter-delegates] Winners of the Chapter Membership
Challenge:Internet Society Home Page Feature Story

hi Everyone,

You may recall that at the beginning of the year we had a "Membership  
Challenge" to chapters to help us recruit new members to the Internet  
Society. While there were individual prizes for the members who  
recruited the most number of new members, we also had a chapter  
challenge for the Chapter that had the largest increase in the number  
of members as a result of the combined recruitment efforts of the  
members of the Chapter.

The Chapter that won was the New  York Chapter.  To celebrate their  
success,  the New York Chapter has a story and video profiled on the  
new Internet Society home page of one of their projects "Breaking  
Barriers".  If you have not yet had a look at the video and the story,  
we would encourage you to do so. It is a fabulous video and a great  
example of some amazing work being done locally by a Chapter.  The  
video and story work was done in close collaboration with the New York  
Chapter and wouldn't have been such a great piece of work if it wasn't  
for them (thank you!).

REQUEST:

This work is also great example of our new approach to storytelling.  
We would love to work with Chapters around the world to develop text,  
audio, or video stories to serve as flagship examples for depth of the  
Internet Society's work around the world.  So:

* If you have programmes or projects you think would make a good  
story, please get in touch with Lia Kiessling <kiessling at isoc.org> and  
copy your Regional Bureau Director.
* If you have event you'd like to promote,  please get in touch with  
Lia at least 2-3 months BEFORE the event so we can brainstorm a  
storyline and approach.
* And of course, don't forget if you would like your event webcast,  
please send an email to <webcast at isoc.org>

There is some great work happening among the Chapters and we look  
forward to hearing your ideas for stories and video pieces and to  
creating more feature pieces.

Best wishes,

Anne and Lia.
