A people-powered economy, the goal of Exchange Ave. is to restore our Indigenous supply lines and create healthier more connected communities through better access to resources beyond material, including skills and time and skills.

Throwback to our earliest days of ideating the exc Throwback to our earliest days of ideating the exchange economy with @thepurpleprize. What began as a pu’uhonua (place of peace and safety) for Indigenous connectivity and community organization, evolved into a digital economy and social exchange platform we now know as Exchange Ave. (EA: to rise up) These photos remind us of the power that manifests when deep observation (kilo) is coupled with intentional design and passion for a place (Aina) and it’s people.
