 Our
Mission
|
Exchange, America's Service Club, is a group of men and women working together
to make our communities better places to live through programs of service in
Americanism, Community Service, Youth Activities, and its national project, the
Prevention of Child Abuse. |
The
History of Exchange
|
The first local Exchange Club was formed in
Detroit, Michigan in 1911. The second was the Exchange Club of Toledo, Ohio
formed in 1913. Subsequently, two others were organized in Grand Rapids,
Michigan and Cleveland, Ohio. These four clubs were the first to be chartered by
the National Exchange Club after it was organized as a nonprofit, educational
organization in 1917. Since then, hundreds of clubs have been chartered in the
United States and Puerto Rico, with nearly 28,000 members making a positive
difference in their own communities
everyday.

Covenant
of Service
|
Accepting
the divine privilege of single and collective responsibility as life’s noblest
gift, I covenant with my fellow Exchangites:
To consecrate
my best energies to the uplifting of Social, Religious, Political and Business
ideals;
To discharge
the debt I owe to those of high and low estate who have served and sacrificed
that the heritage of American citizenship might be mine;
To honor
and respect law, to serve my fellowmen, and to uphold the ideals
and institutions of my Country;
To implant
the life-giving, society-building spirit of Service and Comradeship in my social
and business relationships;
To serve
in Unity with those seeking better conditions, better understandings, and
greater opportunities for all. |
MAKE A DIFFERENCE DAY!
