Supporting the Montana Innocence Project means supporting the innocence of people like Katie Garding. She is currently in pre-release in Billings and will get to spend her first Christmas outside of prison this year. She said it will have a different meaning because of her wrongful conviction.
Thank you have already made a gift in support of Giving Tuesday! Your gifts support our work to free innocent people like Aaron Oliphant who is about to spend his fifth holiday season at Montana State Prison. Aaron is a father. So before he was wrongfully convicted, this time of year was spent organizing family visits, trying to explain what the holidays mean to his kids, and, Aaron told us laughing, “saving money!” Now he sends gifts through a program at the prison called the Giving Tree. Other than that, and a special meal, it is just another day at the prison. What keeps Aaron going through these difficult times is the hope that he will get to spend holidays with family again in the future.
Your gift this Giving Tuesday goes towards freeing people like Dave Wilkes—MTIP's seventh freed client.
Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday! Without your ongoing support for the wrongfully convicted, families all over Montana would still be missing their loved ones during the time of year where being together matters most. But there are still countless families to reunite. We hope you will consider making a gift to help bring the innocent home! Donation page is linked in our bio.
