Every Donation Matters

We rely upon the generosity of individual, corporate and foundation donors committed to criminal justice system reform.

With your support, we will continue to fight for prison reform, seeking a fair, effective and humane criminal justice system in Illinois. 

Here are all of the ways you can contribute to JHA: 

Donate online by setting up a one time or recurring donation. You can cancel a recurring donation at any time by contacting Rebecca Pellegrino.

Matching gift: Double the impact of your donation and ask your employer to match your gift! Check with your company’s HR department and to see if your employer has a matching gift program.

Gift in Honor / Memory of an individual or loved one: Recognize someone you know with an honorarium or memorial gift by donating to JHA.

Planned gift: Leave a legacy of change for years to come and add JHA to your estate plans.
