Proud Supporter of Navy Seal Foundation
Global Exchange Vacation Club (GEVC), which offers affordable and effortless vacation ownership experiences using RCI points, has announced its ongoing support of the Navy SEAL Foundation (NSF) as its charity of choice.
The Navy SEAL Foundation provides critical support for warriors, veterans, and families of Naval Special Warfare.
Rick Sargent, CEO of GEVC’s development company, GEDC (Global Exchange Development Company), attended the NSF New York City Benefit on Thursday, March 7 which had over 1100 in attendance and raised over $6.2M for over thirty programs for the active and veteran SEAL community and their families. He said, “I’ve personally been a supporter of this fine organization for years. I’m proud to attend the NSF event on behalf of GEVC this year and expand our philanthropic efforts for the SEALs in the future.”
The Naval Special Warfare community is the most elite fighting force in the world. With an unparalleled legacy of service that goes back to the Underwater Demolition Teams of WWII, they have always been the true tip of the spear. SEALs have executed some of the highest risk, no-fail operations in history. A few have been publicized, but the vast majority remain unknown to the public.
The NSF provides support for its Gold Star and Surviving Family Members and awards scholarships for higher education to SEAL personnel, their spouses, children, veterans and children and spouses of retirees.
With nearly 30,000 members, GEVC is a pioneer in the Vacation Club segment of the Vacation Ownership industry. Their strategic alliance with RCI, one of the most trusted names in the vacation ownership and exchange industry, gives GEVC members the opportunity to visit “bucket list” destinations around the world.
