Join us on March 7, 6pm–March 8, 6pm for Delaware's Largest Giving Day, #DoMore24DE.
This year Innocence Project Delaware is once again participating in DoMore24! Last year, thanks to your generosity, we raised over $8,000 in 24 hours. That money was critical, helping us revamp our website, increase our volunteer workforce and community outreach efforts.
And there is so much more work to do! Since we opened our doors in 2020, we have received over 140 requests for help from incarcerated Delawareans. Each application must be painstakingly reviewed to see if new evidence can be uncovered and innovative strategies pursued. We are the only organization in Delaware helping the wrongfully convicted as they fight to reclaim the freedom that was stolen from them!
But we can only do this vital work to restore justice and reclaim lives with your help. During this fundraiser we are eligible for matching funds, so your dollars really go further to help us do more throughout the year!
