Pinwheel Garden

Every April, the Club part­ners with Atlantic Area Casa to “plant” a blue pin­wheel gar­den in the com­mu­ni­ty as a part of the Pre­vent Child Abuse America’s Pin­wheels for Pre­ven­tion cam­paign.

Whether you are busi­ness or cor­po­ra­tion enact­ing poli­cies that impact the work-life bal­ance of your employ­ees or a neigh­bor who offers a respite from the demands of par­ent­ing, we all have an effect on the lives of chil­dren. Chil­dren who are raised with safe, sta­ble, and nur­tur­ing rela­tion­ships and envi­ron­ments are more aca­d­e­m­i­cal­ly and finan­cial­ly suc­cess­ful and grow up to be pro­duc­tive, con­tribut­ing mem­bers of their com­mu­ni­ties. Pin­wheels are a reminder that we all play a role in children’s lives.

In April, look out for where the pin­wheel gar­den will be plant­ed this year. Join in this effort by plant­i­ng a gar­den of your own by buy­ing pin­wheels for your house or busi­ness. Just con­tact Exchange Club mem­ber for more infor­ma­tion.
