Give a Second Chance. Break the Cycle of Recidivism.

Every day, adults returning from incarceration face closed doors and limited opportunities. Repowered opens a path forward through paid job training, support, and a community that believes in second chances.

Your gift helps someone rebuild their life, earn a living wage, and break the cycle of recidivism for good while also keeping e-waste out of landfills.

✅ Job training that lead to full-time careers with a living wage and full benefits

✅ Confidence, community, and long-term success

The Impact Is Real

  • 83% complete the first 90 days and secure stable housing
  • 83% graduate into full-time jobs with a living wage and full benefits

  • Over 3 million pounds of e-waste given a second life instead of ending up in landfills
