The National Exchange Club is the only service organization exclusively serving communities in the United States. More than 650 local clubs throughout the U.S. and Puerto Rico provide individuals with opportunities to use their time and talents to benefit their local communities and the country as a whole. Exchange’s Core Values are family, community, and country.
Through the Programs of Service – Americanism, Community Service, and Youth Programs – members support activities that benefit youth, promote pride in our country, and honor military and public service providers, to name a few. Exchange’s National Project is the prevention of child abuse.
Exchange was founded March 27, 1911, in Detroit, MI, by a group of business executives who wanted simply to exchange ideas. Those ideas grew and were shared, and have resulted in innumerable benefits to the nation.
Currently, Exchange has nearly 20,000 members in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. The organization’s National Headquarters, located in Toledo, OH, acts as a resource to local-level clubs and its members.

Attention! The Exchange Club of North Chicago is so excited to announce the Youth of the Year Scholarship recipient for 2024 – none other than the amazing Jabbari Sparkman! Congratulations to Jabbari for maintaining a 3.97 GPA as a senior at North Chicago Community High School which afforded him the Youth of the Month award for December 2023. Now, he is the recipient of our annual Youth of the Year Scholarship in memory of past club president, Ms. Elsye Williams. We are all rooting for Jabbari as he gears up to hit the university scene and major in Business. Major shout-out to Jabbari Sparkman – we are so proud of your accomplishments! 🎉🔥
One of the most popular Exchange youth projects, the Youth of the Month/Year Award recognizes hard-working North Chicago Community High School students each month who attain high levels of scholastic achievement, community involvement and leadership. This proven program not only rewards outstanding young people, but also provides an incentive for other youngsters to strive for equally high levels of achievement.
