Covenant of Service

The following has been adopted by the National Exchange Club
as the philosophy which characterizes an Exchangite.

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.
