We asked you why #AbolitionIsEssential to you — and you’ve shown us through words, images, actions, and by helping us raise $36,000 thus far! Your resources are essential to keeping abolition in action through our campaigns, projects, political education, and movement partnerships.
Will you help us get to our $50,000 goal by 12/31 and sign up to be a monthly sustainer?
Here are the ways to support! You can:
Donate $20, $200, $2,000, or $20,000. Please support us by giving online or sending a generous check.
Become a monthly sustainer online or by check (some workplaces have giving programs!) to keep CR strong.
Subscribe or donate to The Abolitionist, our bilingual newspaper that we send to imprisoned people for free.
Spread the word to family and friends by sharing our website, posting on social media, and encouraging people to support CR.
This month our goal is to raise $50,000 from 5,000 people for CR. That's $10/person. We have raised $36,000 so far. Your generous support is essential. Can you make a gift this month?
Thank you for supporting us!
