Exchange Expands to Fellsmere

The National Exchange Club, a uniquely American service organization comprised of nearly 800 clubs and 25,000 members across the United States and Puerto Rico welcomes its most recent addition – the Exchange Club of Fellsmere, Florida.

For those interested in finding out more about their community’s new Exchange Club, meetings take place at Marsh Landing, on the first and third Monday of the month at noon.

Exchange Club members have the opportunity to develop personal and business leadership skills and network with other members while completing service projects that benefit their own community. Exchange activities include helping to prevent child abuse, awarding scholarships to deserving youth and participating in crime prevention and Americanism projects. Exchange Clubs are encouraged to develop projects that meet the unique needs of their local community.

Exchange, America’s Service Club, is a group of men and women working together to make our communities better places to live through programs of service in Americanism, Community Service, Youth Activities, and its national project, the Prevention of Child Abuse. Founded in 1911, the organization is headquartered in Toledo, Ohio.
