A Message from the National Exchange Club

Every Exchange Club scholarship winner has someone standing behind them. A parent. A guardian. A family who believed in them before we did.

Beginning with our 2026 scholarship winners in Omaha, the National Exchange Club is making sure those families have a permanent seat at our table.

Each scholarship winner’s parents or guardians (up to two per student) will receive a full year of dues at any Exchange Club of their choice. Upon graduation, the student receives the same: one full year of dues at any club they decide to call home.

This is more than a benefit. It is an invitation. For more than a century, our movement has lived in the everyday acts of neighbors who choose to show up for one another. The families who raised these scholarship winners already understand that instinctively. Now they have a place to live it out.

A thank you to South Carolina District President Michael Gaston, who brought this idea forward and gave us a thoughtful answer to a question we have been asking ourselves for a long time: how do we keep our winning students and their families in the Exchange family for life.

Welcome home.

Members of the Exchange Club of Bristol, Conn. were honored to join America250 - Plymouth, CT this morning at the Terryville Memorial Day Parade. We each carried a different Revolutionary War battle flag in the parade. It was a beautiful and meaningful way to honor the effort and sacrifices at the founding of our country.

The Bristol club is part of the National Exchange Club, which is an official collaborator with America250, the nationwide initiative celebrating the United States' 250th birthday.
