Exchange Club members will join together across the country for the
single biggest child abuse prevention service event in Exchange’s
97-year history. They will be participating in the Believe in the
Blue child abuse prevention project.
Believe in the Blue is an effort to reach
families all across the nation with positive parenting tips.
Exchange believes parents have the power to make positive parenting
choices in the lives of their children and is offering some
easy-to-use tips to help all parents. “This will be an event to
raise awareness about the positive impact parents and caregivers can
have on children and to offer some helpful tips about positive
parenting,” said Exchange’s National President Rob Davidson.
Approximately 800 Exchange Clubs representing more than 25,000
members will participate in the Believe in the Blue project.
All clubs will hand out materials from 1pm until 3pm EDT at local
supermarkets, department stores, and
shopping centers.
More than 500,000 Positive Parenting and Shopping Tips cards will be
distributed.
The National Exchange Club is a group of
men and women working to make America a better place to live through
one national project, the Prevention of Child Abuse, and other
community service projects. To date, The National Exchange Club’s
efforts have helped more than 619,000 families and 1.5 million
children break the cycle of child abuse through its parent aide
programs and public education projects.
