Who We Are

The Exchange Club of Rich­mond Hill is a group of men and women work­ing togeth­er to make our com­mu­ni­ty a bet­ter place to live. Our pro­grams of ser­vice are Amer­i­can­ism, Com­mu­ni­ty Ser­vice, Youth Activ­i­ties, and the nation­al project: the pre­ven­tion of child abuse.

The exchange club covenant of service

Accept­ing the divine priv­i­lege of sin­gle and col­lec­tive respon­si­bil­i­ty as life’s noblest gift, I covenant with my fel­low Exchan­gites:

To con­se­crate my best ener­gies to the uplift­ing of Social, Reli­gious, Polit­i­cal and Busi­ness ideals;

To dis­charge the debt I owe to those of high and low estate who have served and sac­ri­ficed that the her­itage of Amer­i­can Cit­i­zen­ship might be mine;

To hon­or and respect law, to serve my fel­low­men, and to uphold the ideals and insti­tu­tions of my coun­try;

To implant the life-giv­ing, soci­ety-build­ing spir­it of Ser­vice and Com­rade­ship in my social and busi­ness rela­tion­ships;

To serve in Uni­ty with those seek­ing bet­ter con­di­tions, bet­ter under­stand­ings, and greater oppor­tu­ni­ties for all.

JOIN US!

We meet from noon–1PM on the 2nd and 4th Wednes­day of each month at the Rich­mond Hill City Cen­ter. Vis­i­tors and prospec­tive new mem­bers are always wel­come.

Mem­ber­ship is a great way to get involved in mak­ing Bryan Coun­ty a bet­ter place to live, stay up to date on cur­rent area events, net­work with oth­ers of sim­i­lar inter­ests, and devel­op your own lead­er­ship skills.

Help us make a dif­fer­ence with fundrais­ing, too. Here’s just a few things we do:

  • Annu­al School Cal­en­dar
  • Casi­no Night to Pre­vent Child Abuse
  • Pin­wheel and CAP Pin Sales

Our oper­at­ing expens­es are paid by mem­ber dues, so all net pro­ceeds from fundrais­ing events go to sup­port var­i­ous com­mu­ni­ty projects. Dues are cur­rent­ly $100 per quar­ter, one of the best bar­gains avail­able among all civic and ser­vice orga­ni­za­tions. Learn more about the ben­e­fits:

Donations & Payments

We appre­ci­ate mon­e­tary dona­tions to sup­port our var­i­ous caus­es, or you may donate to one spe­cif­ic cause or pro­gram in hon­or or mem­o­ry of a friend, loved one, val­ued com­mu­ni­ty mem­ber – the choice is yours, and any amount is appre­ci­at­ed (and tax deductible, too.) The Make a Dona­tion but­ton below will take you to our secure form and Pay­Pal pay­ment gate­way.

You may also pay mem­ber­ship dues or pay for adver­tis­ing or spon­sor­ships using the secure Pay­Pal link below. Be sure to let us know what you’re pay­ing for as well as any oth­er details we may need to know. Thank you!
