– Jan McClure, Central Florida ESU Branch President

We’re Proud of Our Community!

Our Branch was founded in 1960 by just a few thoughtful Winter Park residents. It has grown into a deeply impactful collection of over two hundred members and countless program participants dedicated to the ideals of the ESU mission. We have a full calendar for members this year – interesting, knowledgeable speakers at our monthly meetings, professional entertainment at our two planned formal dinners at the Winter Park Racquet Club, opportunities for members to serve and learn, community partnership events to attend! We are proud to offer scholarships to teachers and students, and grant opportunities to our education partners. Take a closer look at our activities by perusing this site, and get in touch for membership information. Join our vibrant community of lifelong learners!
