We're an all-volunteer, Charitable Foundation and Public Charity
The Xemplar Club is a tax-exempt non-profit public charity. Our affiliated Xemplar Foundation is a non-profit Charitable Foundation. Both have received 501c3 status from the IRS, and donations are tax-exempt to the full extent permitted by IRS code. We committed to serving families, seniors and youth in Farmington and Farmington Hills, particularly those who are considered at-risk. Donations to the Xemplar Club are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by IRS tax code. In June of each year, we raise funds through the Xemplar Club Signature Golf Classic held at Farmington Hills Golf Club, which we in turn donate to numerous charitable organizations in the community. On Memorial Day, our organization hosts the Farmington Memorial Day Parade, and also distribute over 4,000 American flags to children along the parade route.
The Farmington & Farmington Hills Xemplar Club meets each Wednesday for lunch at Noon, when Farmington Public Schools are in session, from early September through mid-June. Our meetings are filled with fellowship, fun and education, with a different guest speaker presenting each week. The Club also hosts a number of special events for our members including a holiday grab bag gift luncheon, a theatre night at the Farmington Players Barn, a group outing to Comerica Park for a Tiger's game, and a Valentine's Sweetheart Dinner.
Our club is made up of individuals from all walks of life in the community including doctors, judges, business owners, retirees, city and school officials. New members are always welcome and we encourage you to consider joining what we believe is the finest service organization in the State of Michigan, the Xemplar Club.
Lisa Murrell, 2019-20 Xemplar Club President
We're New, But We've Been Around A Long Time
Our club was formed in 2010 by 73 members of a local chapter of a national service organization.While we valued our long relationship with the previous organization, our members felt we could better serve our local community by becoming an independent organization. Our members have always unselfishly served our community and worked to improve the quality of life. Our sponsored programs and projects have made a considerable impact on our community, enhancing the lives of countless men, women and children. In January of 2010, our members voted to become an independent community service organization, and formed the Xemplar Club.
