Amack’s Well is proud to partner with Safe Passage, Inc to bring awareness around Teen Dating Violence. This month we are featuring an informational table with resources for teens who may be experiencing abuse. After Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month is over, community members can still find resources posted in our restrooms year-round. 

Annual Give Back

Since 2016 Amack’s Well Coffee House has sponsored a Give Back Campaign. The purpose of this program is to “Give Back” to community organizations and charity groups (or individuals) who deserve encouragement and financial support. Our Give Back Campaign lives out part of our mission statement in demonstrating “love for our neighbor.” Each year a portion of our earnings are given back to our beloved community through this Campaign and other outreaches.

The process starts by individuals nominating worthy causes or charity groups and submitting a “Nomination Form” to Amack’s Well each November. Your regular patronage and dedication to Amack’s Well allows us to be generous with others.
