AUGUSTA EXCHANGE CLUB
CHARITY FUND |
The Exchange Club of Augusta was established on August 8, 1923. In October of that year, the club sponsored its first Exchange Club Fair. Since that time, the Exchange Club Fair, now known as the Georgia-Carolina State Fair, has been an annual event sponsored by the Club for the purpose of raising funds to be donated to well deserving charities throughout our Community. During these years, good and bad times have been endured by the Club. Sponsoring a Fall Fair is risky business in that the weather can greatly affect the revenues of the fair. Without these revenues, the Exchange Club would be unable to donate the funds that it does to the various charities throughout the community. Realizing this, The Exchange Club of Augusta established the Augusta Exchange Club Charity Fund.
The Augusta Exchange Club Charity Fund insures the future ability of the Exchange Club of Augusta to donate generously to the community. This fund is designed to withstand years of decreased Fair revenues which could be caused by a variety of reasons. This tax-exempt organization is operated by persons who function independently from the operation of the Exchange Club itself. The donations from the Fund are made to tax-exempt charities in the Augusta area.
Tax Exempt Donations should be made payable to the Augusta Exchange Club Charity Fund, Inc., and mailed to P.O. Box 3884; Augusta,Ga. 30914-3884.
