The Germantown Charity Horse Show is proud to sponsor as our charity the Exchange Club Family Center. This 2014
show will mark our sixteenth year to help raise funds for this vital organization. Begun in 1984 to help prevent child abuse,
the Exchange Club Family Center’s mission is to break the cycle of child abuse and neglect by replacing abusive and
violent behavior with effective parenting skills.
The Exchange Club Family Center offers programs and services in three major areas: family violence, parenting
education, and anger management. Last year, the center served over 4,000 clients and family members in the Mid-South
area, according to their website. It is one of 76 Exchange Club Centers in the nation.
The Germantown Charity Horse Show has sponsored the Exchange Club Center as its charity since 1999. Barbara King,
executive director of the center, wrote in the 2005 horse show program, “The past six horse shows have been major
fundraising events, earning a profit of $25,000 to $30,000 each year. These dollars are used to provide counseling and
other services for children who have been abused or forced to witness violence in their homes. Every $50 raised can
provide one hour of counseling, and thus, you can see what a major impact this partnership means for the children in our
community.”
