The Bail Project

Mission Statement

The Bail Project is a national nonprofit organization that combats mass incarceration by disrupting the money bail system – one person at a time. We restore the presumption of innocence, reunite families, and challenge a system that criminalizes race and poverty. We’re on a mission to end cash bail and create a more just, equitable, and humane pretrial system.

Why Donate to The Bail Project?

Join our thousands of donors who are helping us secure freedom for people who can’t afford it, reuniting families and restoring the presumption of innocence.

Online donations are used to bring people home, connect them with services based on their needs, and work toward a future where access to justice is not determined by the color of a person's skin or how much money they have.

Money keeps people in. But your donation can break them out.
