The Exchange Club is a national service organization made up of local clubs dedicated to strengthening communities through volunteer service. The National Exchange Club was founded in 1911. Its primary focus areas include supporting youth, promoting patriotism, encouraging American values and preventing child abuse and domestic violence. Exchange clubs are nonpartisan, nonprofit, and community-based, with members working hands-on to make positive local impact while being part of a nationwide network.
