“With Exposure, we believe it’s important to create pathways for inmates to earn money, financial stability can be a significant factor in reducing recidivism. When inmates have the opportunity to earn money and improve their financial situation, it can help them feel a sense of purpose and motivation to stay on track with their rehabilitation and reentry into society. We believe incentives can help inmates feel engaged, motivated, and have a chance to invest in their own success, while building their confidence, skills and a sense of purpose which can ultimately lead to a brighter future for themselves and their communities.
“Unlocking Potential”
We hold a Creative Contest Quarterly for our members who would like to participate. The prizes are as follows:
- First place- $200
- Second place- $100
- Third place-$75
- Remaining 2 people $25 each
Information about the Contest will be included in the Newsletters to our members and announced on our Newsletter page. Any person that’s incarcerated is able to participate in our contest, but if you are not an active member on our website at the time of announcement there will be a $3.00 participation fee.
“Referral Bonus”
Members will receive $50.00 each time they refer 10 people to Exposure, and those individuals start a membership plan. Please note that the $7 Pay- As You Go-Plan is NOT INCLUDED in the Referral Bonus program.
Our sign-up forms provide a space to put the member’s name and inmate number that referred them. Once the member has reached 10 referrals the money will then be placed on their facility account, and a receipt will be mailed to them.
“Monthly Drawings”
We hold monthly Drawings of $100.00 in which the computer randomly selects four people each month to receive $25.00 each. The member will be notified by mail or sent an email if it’s provided at the facility. The money will be placed on the member facility account and a receipt will be mailed to them.
“Unlocking Ideas”
We believe that the best ideas come from those who are closest to the challenges we aim to solve. That’s why we’re excited to launch our new program, “Unlocking Ideas”. If our members have a suggestion that they think would help our pen pal program reach more incarcerated individuals or increase our impact, we want to hear it!
For every suggestion that we decide to use, we will pay the member a one-time fee of $50.00.
Please note that we’ll only consider suggestions that align with our mission and values, we reserve the right to reject any suggestion at our discretion.
