John,

Thirty-one years ago, Barry Scheck and Peter Neufeld started the Innocence Project as a small legal clinic at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law. They believed that if DNA could prove someone guilty of a crime, it could also prove a wrongly convicted person innocent.

During the first ten years, we celebrated many big milestones including our first exoneration, Barry and Peter publishing a book highlighting stories of the innocent, U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno (a founding member of our board) commissioning a report on the causes of wrongful convictions, and so much more. Take a look below at some of the big moments from our first decade, and make a donation to help fund the big moments of the future. [[link removed]]

This decade helped us lay the groundwork for the over 245 exonerations that we’ve celebrated together so far — but we know the work is never over.

In honor of the Innocence Project’s 31st birthday, will you make a donation right now to help fund the innocence movement? [[link removed]]

The Innocence Project works to free the innocent, prevent wrongful convictions, and create fair, compassionate, and equitable systems of justice for everyone. Founded in 1992 by Barry C. Scheck and Peter J. Neufeld at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law at Yeshiva University, the organization is now an independent nonprofit. Our work is guided by science and grounded in anti-racism.
