Service" Learn more
about one of our most popular
youth
projects.
America’s young people are its most precious resource.
This is why, for many years, Exchange has sponsored an impressive
selection of activities designed to benefit and encourage our nation’s
youth. Many of these richly rewarding programs are among the most
popular and well-supported of all Exchange Club endeavors.
There is a variety of youth-related projects in which
your club can participate. Of course, your participation is not limited
to the programs specified in this book. After performing your community
needs assessment, a tool which is available from your National
Headquarters, you will determine which programs are most suitable for
your area.
Recognition of a well-deserving youth could have an
impact on his or her entire future. One National Youth of the Year Award
recipient put it this way:
As a young man from an almost unknown town, the award
proved to me that dreams can be reached. This award helped me to gain
the necessary self-confidence to cope with the many hurdles associated
with the acquisition of an education. It taught me that with hard work
and support of others, the sky was the limit. I knew that my career
aspirations could become a reality.
Your club will make a difference when it conducts
Exchange’s youth programs in your community.
National Headquarters has many printed
materials to assist clubs in their efforts to better their communities
through our Program of Service.
