Dear John,
For many of us, 24 hours may not feel like a long time. In fact, sometimes it may not seem long enough.
But when you've been sitting in prison, maintaining your innocence for months, years, sometimes even decades — even one more day of being wrongfully incarcerated is too long.
That's why our team is working tirelessly to drive necessary change in the criminal justice system. But we can't free innocent people alone. John: We've set a 200-donor goal and we're counting on supporters like you to help us reach it before the end of the month. Will you please make a donation to help us free innocent people and prevent wrongful convictions?

In 2018, after Malcolm Alexander was released from prison after withstanding 38 years of wrongful incarceration, he spoke to us about the value of time with his family:
"I love every minute I spend with them. Every minute. I talk to them every day on the phone. Every day. During the week, I can’t wait for the weekend to come around because that’s when we are actually able to meet up and spend time together."

For the hundreds of Innocence Project clients who are currently behind bars, each day that we fail to deliver justice is a precious moment missed that they cannot recover.
That's why our work at the Innocence Project is so important, John. Since our inception, we have helped to free or exonerate hundreds of wrongfully convicted people, pass transformative state laws and federal reforms, and advance the innocence movement. But our work wouldn't be possible without people like you, helping us every step of the way.
So please, John: Will you make a donation of any size right now to help us reach our 200-donor goal and continue our groundbreaking work to free innocent people and transform the criminal legal system?
