If you want to reach a goal, you must “See the reaching” in your own mind before you actually arrive at your goal. – Zig Ziglar 

District 3 “I Can’t Take My EYES Off of You”  is leading the charts this week with 89.34% for the Department… and Iowa took the lead in membership for the  Nation with 83% turned in.  We can do this Nebraska , we are not far behind with 81.69%   You are capable of amazing things!  – Bullet Journal Vision Journal

Per our North Western Division Vice President Shirley Frederick “We are about to start the 2nd week of January and we have many members that have not paid their 2021 Unit dues. After January 31st they are in danger of losing their continued years of membership, cannot vote or hold office after that until their dues are paid to the unit and have been sent in to the Department or on line to National. Remind them also of the benefits that are part of their membership, they will not be able to use any of them. They will not be able to apply for help through our Auxiliary Emergency Fund if they become in need of it. Once their dues are paid these are restored. If there is a year lapse in dues the time for eligibility for help through the Auxiliary Emergency Fund will be 3 years. “

Districts and Units  are you taking part in the Caring and Sharing week April 1-7, 2021? Check your 2019-2021 Supplement to the Programs Action Plan for the Unit Award information. What are we asking units to do? We are asking their members and leaders to work together to contact all members of their Unit. We want them to call (or visit) members in good standing, members who still need to renew, and former members (that have not paid dues since 2018). The purpose of these calls are to let everyone know their membership is valued and/or they are missed.

Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results. – Andrew Carnegie

We plan on seeing you at Midyear!

Vision 2021

National Membership

Membership

Vision is a destination – a fixed point to which we focus all effort. Strategy is a route – an adaptable path to get us where we want to go.” Simon Sinek  

The Excitement is building as we watch with anticipation the “Vision 2020”  membership.

The Department of NE  topped 90% in membership this morning with 90.30!  Way to go…

District 13 “Fix My Eyes” is at 99.39% they only need four more members to be at 100%.

This morning we added Holstein to the 66 units that are at 100% of membership, For a total of 67 Units that are now at  100% or more in membership. I have also noticed the more units we add the more “Likes” we have on Facebook, which mean we have more members watching and looking for those 100% units. YEA.

Use the Week of Caring and sharing to rejoin some of those past members.

From NW Division membership Chairman: Shirley Frederick:

“Please remember that the Legion act gives us a huge untapped veteran and family population for new members. What has your department, district and units been doing about it? Some things could be
putting an article in your local newspapers, put up flyers around town with this information and contact information, ask to speak at local organizations and/or send them a letter about the change in eligibility
to these organizations. Use Facebook and other media to get the word out. Don’t forget to mention how spouse of a female veteran can become an Auxiliary member. We have over 500 new male members in the Auxiliary now.”

We would really like to see all the units at 90% or more this time of year. Can we send a e-mail or contact the leaders of those units that are not at the 90% or above?  Can I help you?

“When you have a vision that is strong enough and powerful enough, nothing can stand in your way.” Lewis Howes
