🧡💫 "Every Child Deserves Their Mother" - The bond between a mother and child is irreplaceable, yet it's being broken every day by a system that incarcerates Black mothers at alarming rates. Your small donation can make a huge impact. It's about more than money—it's about restoring families, healing communities, and fighting against a system that tears them apart. We're committed to dismantling a system that leaves children motherless and communities fragmented. Help us bail out Black mamas, reconnect families, and provide the supportive services necessary for a new start. 🖤🔓 Your contribution can empower and uplift.

📣 Help Us Reach Our Year-End Goal! As we close out the year, we’re launching a $10,000 fundraising drive to continue the critical work of exonerating the wrongfully incarcerated. These cases are not only life-changing—they’re expensive. Legal fees, investigations, DNA testing, and post-release support all require significant resources. Thanks to the generosity of Rich Shaper, every donation of $100 or more will be matched, doubling your impact! Exonerations are about more than freedom—they’re about justice, dignity, and giving people back their lives after years lost behind bars for crimes they didn’t commit. We can’t do this without your support. Learn more and donate at DeskovicFoundation.org. Together, we can make justice possible. #JusticeMatters #Exoneration #WrongfulConviction #InnocenceProject #JusticeForAll #AdvocacyForChange #YearEndGiving #NonprofitSupport #MakingADifference #HumanRights #DonateNow

📢 **We’re Making an Impact Beyond the Local Community!** 🌍 Did you know that we receive mail and phone calls from residents in local prisons, requesting our services before they’re even released? These individuals are eager to start their journey toward a better future, and they trust Erika’s Closet to help them transition back into the community successfully. 💪 This is why your support is crucial! Your donations enable us to continue this vital work—not just welcoming individuals upon release, but also preparing them for the transition long before they step out. Together, we can provide the tools, resources, and hope they need to rebuild their lives. 🙏 Please consider donating to Erika’s Closet or other community organizations committed to supporting these individuals. With your help, we can ensure that everyone has a chance to thrive. -Cashapp: $erikasclosetclt -paypal.me/ErikasclosetNC -Venmo: @Erikas-Closet https://lnkd.in/e_QryB-i #CommunitySupport #ReentryPrograms #DonateNow #ErikasCloset #SecondChances

Charity—whether through money, food, clothing, or toys—is a vital practice that we should make a regular part of our lives. In Islam, even a simple smile is considered an act of charity. It’s inspiring to see people dedicate their time and effort to something spiritually enriching while supporting those in need. Here are some key takeaways about charity and its significance in Islam. Charity helps alleviate poverty, reduce inequality, and strengthen bonds within the community, fostering a sense of mutual care and responsibility. Islam emphasizes that acts of charity, big or small, are significant in the eyes of Allah, as I said above even a smile can count as charity. In fact , Zakat(charity) is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, requiring Muslims to give a fixed percentage (usually 2.5%) of their wealth annually to help the needy, support social welfare, and promote economic balance. Charity is considered a way to purify one’s wealth and soul, reduce greed, and earn Allah’s blessings and forgiveness. The Qur’an and Hadith frequently promise immense rewards for those who give generously. Ultimately, charity benefits both the giver and the receiver, serving as a powerful means to foster a more just, fair, and compassionate society.

Color Me Yellow- Inside Out Network Fundraising Campaign- Year 2! First off, to all of those who previously donated, we wanted to thank you again for your generous financial support for the Inside Out Network's Color Me Yellow campaign last year. Because of last year's successful campaign, we were able to retool our online platform and shift our work to a higher gear. This year’s campaign is all about pressing on the accelerator and doubling our impact. Our goals for the coming year are to successfully launch direct access between men and women leaving prison and community service providers (a) on ViaPath tablets in Oregon, Illinois, and Mississippi, (b) on prison library computers in Arizona, and (c) by registering the next 50 service providers in Oregon. Due to the funding that is needed to pursue these exciting opportunities for growth, we have officially launched our second "Color Me Yellow" campaign. If you are able to make a tax-deductible contribution to ION (501 c 3) now, your gift will be doubled! Several generous friends of ION have come forward with matching challenge gifts in the amount of $20,000; we hope to raise a minimum of $70,000 before the end of the year to fuel our vision. So for this Giving Tuesday (December 3rd), please consider donating- you can help change the lives of thousands of those leaving incarceration. DONATE NOW: https://lnkd.in/gkiyk_Xd. *You can also mail a check to our address or donate stock. Please reach out for more information.* Please share with your family and friends too. Thank you for your support! #GivingTuesday2024 #Nonprofit #CriminalJustice #reentry #CriminalJusticeReform #givingback #communitysupport
