2026 Exchange Club of Lake Highlands background

Who Are We

The Exchange Club of Lake Highlands, established in 1961, is an affiliate of the National Exchange Club. The original purpose of "Exchange," which continues today, was to create grassroots organizations for the exchange of ideas leading to community involvement and enhancement in the Lake Highlands area of Dallas, Texas.

Over the years, this objective has been refined to focus on preventing child abuse and a broad array of youth service, citizenship programs, and community services.

For The Kids

These Lake Highlands students are the most recent recipients of the 2024-2025 scholarship program, awarding a record $145,000 in annual scholarships. In the last 25+ years, the Exchange Club of Lake Highlands has awarded over $3,000,000 in scholarships to graduating seniors in our community.
