Dear John,

Thank you for being part of our community of dedicated supporters working to free the innocent, prevent wrongful convictions, and create fair, compassionate, and equitable systems of justice for everyone. With your support, we’ve been able to free or exonerate 250 people to date.

We’re writing to you today with some exciting news: We’re auctioning off two noteworthy opportunities with GOODBIDS.org:

• First up, step into the thrilling world of Innocence Project board member John Grisham's next literary masterpiece with the opportunity to have your name featured as a character.
• We’re also giving away the chance to have a song reviewed by Jason Flom, a music industry titan renowned for his golden ear in spotting and signing some of the most influential musical acts of our time.

GOODBIDS.org is pioneering a new method called a Positive Auction, where every bid is a donation.

With a starting bid of $10 and mandatory bidding increments of $10, auction activity would look like this:

Bid 1: $10
Bid 2: $20
Bid 3: $30 …

and so forth. Whoever bids last wins.

Reminder: Every single bid, win or lose, is a direct donation to support the Innocence Project and our mission to free the innocent. With your support, we can continue this life-saving work to restore justice, free more innocent people, and transform the criminal legal system. Please consider making a bid today.

You can visit the auctions here and take a look at all the terms.

Once again, thank you for your support. 

Good luck!
