in memoriam

Memorialize the life of a loved one by supporting our mission to place the voices of incarcerated and formerly incarcerated women and LGBTQIA2S at the forefront of the movement for reducing mass incarceration.

Memorial donations are donations given in memory of someone who has passed away as a way to honor both them and their family.
