Some people can buy freedom. Others are still waiting for it.

Right now, women are sitting in prison long after they should be home, not because they don’t deserve release, but because they don’t have money, connections, or powerful people fighting for them.

Clemency and second chances too often go to the people who can afford them.

Women without resources are left behind.

We fight for those women.

We fight for the ones whose names you don’t hear.

The ones whose families are still waiting.

The ones who have already served enough.

They should not spend the rest of their lives locked away.

Funding for The National Council and other social justice organizations has halted, and many have been forced to close their doors.

We are still holding on for as long as we can, because real change doesn’t come from big donors alone. It comes from everyday people deciding to stand up together.

If you can, chip in $5, $10, or whatever you’re able. Every dollar helps advance a case, support a family, and bring someone closer to home.

Freedom shouldn’t depend on wealth.

Help us fight for it.

Chip in now to support this women-led movement and help us replace prisons with care, punishment with possibility, and isolation with freedom.
