John, Wrongful Conviction Day was a chance to honor the families, communities, and innocent people whose lives were upended by wrongful convictions.
For more than three decades, we’ve helped exonerate more than 250 wrongfully convicted individuals by proving innocence. We can’t give back the time that was stolen from them — a collective 3,942 years — but we can keep fighting to make wrongful convictions a thing of the past.
With your help, we can continue fighting to strengthen the innocence movement and address the systemic causes of wrongful convictions through litigation, policy reform, and education. When you make a gift in honor of Wrongful Conviction Day, your support will be 2X-MATCHED to make an even bigger impact on our critical, life-saving work.

Wrongful convictions are life-altering experiences with lifelong consequences. Around 9% of Innocence Project exonerees were on death row facing execution, meaning that for some, proving innocence can be a matter of life and death.
According to experts, tens of thousands of people are wrongfully convicted right now. We work tirelessly year-round to change that, fighting on behalf of individuals and working to transform the flawed criminal legal system that puts innocent people behind bars. But we can’t do it without your support.
Will you join our community of justice-minded supporters and make a gift that goes twice as far? The future of the innocence movement depends on the generosity of supporters like you.
