Freedom Shrine

The Freedom Shrine is an impressive, permanently mounted collection of 28 of the most important and historic American documents, including the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States and the Gettysburg Address. These remarkable documents serve as windows to the world of America’s proud past. They show our nation’s youth the strength and courage of their forefathers and allowing them to read, with their own eyes, the immortal words of inspired Americans who so decisively changed the course of history.

The objective of Exchange is to install a Freedom Shrine in every junior and senior high in the nation. However, Freedom Shrines have also found places of honor in universities, libraries, state capitols, airports, city halls and other public places where they can be studied and admired. The Exchange Club of North Jackson has installed Freedom Shrines in the following 15 locations:

Bailey Magnet School Central High School
Chastain Middle School Hillcrest Christian School
Duling Adult Education
& Community Center
Jackson International Airport
Jackson Mall Jackson Preparatory School
Madison-Ridgeland Academy McLeod Elementary School
Mississippi School for the Deaf Murrah High School
Woodland Hills Baptist Academy Parham Bridges Park
