National and Local Exchange Clubs
The National Exchange Club is a service organization with chapters located across the country. The first club was founded on the premise that like-minded individuals would gather to “exchange” ideas about how they could better serve their communities and make them better places to live.
Three Exchange Clubs are active in the Oklahoma City metropolitan area and they have made it their primary project to support Parent Promise through fundraising activities, monetary and in-kind donations and volunteerism. The Exchange Club of Oklahoma City founded Parent Promise in 1988. Without the support of the three clubs, Parent Promise would not be able to help and support the children and families we do.
Each Club meets regularly to “exchange” ideas about the needs in the local community and how the membership can help fill those needs. If you are interested in learning more about the local Exchange Clubs or joining, you may contact any of the three clubs.
