Since then hundreds of clubs have been chartered in the United States and Puerto Rico. The National Exchange Club headquarters is located in Toledo, Ohio. Their chief objective is to help Exchange Clubs realize their full potential of community service. Clubs sponsor a wide range of activities to improve our communities, help the disadvantaged and encourage good American citizenship. The principal areas of Exchange's National Program of Service are Youth, Americanism and Community Service, with Child Abuse Prevention emphasized as the national project.
Members also initiate activities to meet unique local needs.
This may be anything from raising funds for the homeless to building and staffing a sheltered workshop for the disabled.
