The Exchange Club of Cleveland, MS, was established December 13, 1935. It currently has 50 members of all ages and from a wide array of professions. Members conduct over 30 projects in the areas of Americanism, Youth and Community Service during a year. In addition the Exchange Club of Cleveland champions the National project of Child Abuse Prevention. The club is a part of the Mississippi District of Exchange and the National Exchange Club. The National Exchange Club is the only service organization exclusively serving communities in the United States. More than 600 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.
National Exchange Club 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.
Written in 1923 by Thomas L. Bailey,  Exchange’s National President (1925-1927) and Governor of Mississippi (1944-1946). Adopted in 1927.
