EXCEL Clubs
Each EXCEL Club is sponsored and mentored by the
local Exchange Club. All high school students are welcome to become
involved. EXCEL Clubs can be formed in any secondary school, including
public, private, and parochial and vocational schools. The two basic
requirements are to recruit young people who are willing to take on the
challenge of becoming charter members of a youth organization, and the
sponsoring Exchange Club must have the dedication to advise and guide
the EXCEL Club to fruition.
EXCEL Clubs are groups of high
school students dedicated to improving their schools, communities and
country through volunteerism. As members of EXCEL Clubs serve their
communities, they also develop valuable leadership and networking
skills. EXCEL Club members learn by doing. The students, with the help
of a school advisor, lead the club, decide on how to serve their school
and community and then get actively involved in doing just that.
Additional information on starting and EXCEL Club may be obtained from
National Headquarters.
