Empowering Change: Our Commitment to Giving Back

Exchange for Change is a Miami based nonprofit organization that offers education inside South Florida prisons.

At American Way Coffee, we believe in the power of community and the importance of giving back. That's why we're proud to support Exchange for Change, a Miami-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to providing education and empowerment to incarcerated individuals in the South Florida community. We're committed to donating a portion of our proceeds to Exchange for Change, further amplifying our impact and ensuring that every purchase made with us contributes to positive change in our community. Through our partnership with Exchange for Change, we're able to make a meaningful impact on the lives of those who are striving to create positive change, both within themselves and within society as a whole.

Why Exchange for Change?

  • Education Inside Prisons: Exchange for Change offers transformative education programs, including creative writing workshops, correspondence courses, and book clubs, conducted within correctional facilities. These programs provide participants with opportunities for personal growth, skill development, and self-expression. Find out more here.

  • Promoting Dialogue and Understanding: By fostering dialogue and connection through the written word, Exchange for Change encourages empathy, understanding, and reconciliation among incarcerated individuals and the broader community.

  • Reducing Recidivism: Research has shown that access to education and supportive programs during incarceration can significantly reduce the likelihood of individuals returning to prison upon release. Exchange for Change's focus on education and personal development contributes to breaking the cycle of recidivism and promoting successful reintegration into society. Based on a report issued by the Mackinac Center For Public Policy, it was found that prison education programs reduce the likelihood of recidivism by 14.8%. The findings also show positive employment benefits for former offenders, including a 6.9% increase in the likelihood of employment and an extra $131 in quarterly wages. Find out more here.

  • Advocacy and Awareness: In addition to its direct services, Exchange for Change advocates for criminal justice reform and raises awareness about issues related to incarceration, mass incarceration, and systemic inequalities within the justice system.

By supporting Exchange for Change, we're investing in a brighter future for individuals, families, and communities affected by incarceration. Together, we're empowering change and creating opportunities for growth, healing, and reconciliation.

Join us in our commitment to making a difference. Together, we can create a more just, compassionate, and equitable society for all. To find out more about Exchange for Change, their mission, and the ways in which you can support the organization, visit their website on www.exchange-for-change.org
