What is Exchange?

Our Vision

A strong Amer­ica, safe com­mu­ni­ties, and uni­fied people.

Our Mis­sion

Exchange, inspir­ing 

com­mu­ni­ties to become bet­ter places to live.

Our Motto

Unity for Service

The National Exchange Club is a net­work span­ning the United States and Puerto Rico. A dynamic orga­ni­za­tion com­prised of more than 20,000 mem­bers and nearly 650 clubs, all striv­ing together to ful­fill Exchange’s Mis­sion– “Work­ing together to make our com­mu­ni­ties bet­ter places to live.”

If you are look­ing to help oth­ers in your com­mu­nity, Exchange is for you!

Exchange is build­ing lead­ers for today and tomor­row: If you are look­ing for ways to develop lead­er­ship skills and a net­work of con­tacts across the com­mu­nity and the coun­try, Exchange if for you. Exchange pro­vides lead­er­ship train­ing for its mem­bers and oppor­tu­ni­ties to apply this lead­er­ship in local club, dis­trict and national offi­cer positions.

Exchange is America’s Ser­vice Club: The Exchange Club of Albany is com­prised of some of the most active cit­i­zen lead­ers in South­west Geor­gia, ded­i­cated to help­ing one another and address­ing the needs of others.

Our Mis­sion: Exchange, America’s Pre­mier Ser­vice Club, work­ing to make our com­mu­ni­ties bet­ter places to live.

Our Motto: Unity For Service.

Founded on March 27, 1911, in Detroit, Michi­gan, the orga­ni­za­tion is head­quar­tered in Toledo, Ohio and employs a staff of approx­i­mately 20 indi­vid­u­als ded­i­cated to help­ing mem­bers and clubs achieve their goals. The com­mu­nity level clubs and National Head­quar­ters sup­port three Pro­grams of Ser­vice: Amer­i­can­ism, Com­mu­nity Ser­vice and Youth Pro­grams as well as Exchange’s National Project, the Pre­ven­tion of Child Abuse. These Pro­grams of Ser­vice serve as cat­e­gories to help clubs orga­nize the activ­i­ties that ben­e­fit their com­mu­ni­ties. The National Project is the one spe­cific ini­tia­tive that Exchange encour­ages clubs to cham­pion. Child Abuse Pre­ven­tion aware­ness is encour­aged through events such as “Blue Mon­day”, when mem­bers are encour­aged to spread aware­ness by wear­ing the color blue every Mon­day through­out Child Abuse Pre­ven­tion Month in April. Addi­tion­ally, a ded­i­cated Child Abuse Pre­ven­tion Ser­vices staff sup­ports Exchange Child Abuse Pre­ven­tion Cen­ters across Amer­ica and helps guide the edu­ca­tional and pre­ven­tion efforts of Exchange Clubs.

 

 Exchange’s Core Values:

Each mem­ber of Exchange upholds three core val­ues– Fam­ily, Com­mu­nity and Country.

Com­mit­ment ton Fam­ily is inter­preted not only as one’s own fam­ily but those of all Amer­i­can Fam­i­lies. Strength­en­ing Fam­i­lies with a focus on Youth is addressed in many ways through Exchange’s Pro­grams of Service.

Com­mit­ment to the Com­mu­nity where an Exchan­gite resides is the focal point for each club’s efforts. Exchange is unique as clubs have the flex­i­bil­ity to struc­ture projects tar­get­ing needs of their com­mu­ni­ties rather than being tied to a cer­tain cause.

Com­mit­ment to Coun­try was born in the after­math of World War II, a time of unquench­able patri­o­tism. Exchan­gites are proud to join vet­er­ans and other civic groups in pro­mot­ing Amer­i­can­ism as the rich bless­ing of democ­racy and free­dom. Mem­bers also actively edu­cate today’s youth to cher­ish these values.
