Donate to Our Fund for Bail
The Philadelphia Community Bail Fund raises money all year round to post bail for our neighbors who remain imprisoned simply because they are too poor to pay for their freedom. Your support goes toward posting bail and providing some basic supports to help people recover their lives after incarceration. These supports include transit passes so that people can get to court or work. Help paying back rent or securing an apartment when incarceration has threatened their housing. Money for groceries and clothing.
Your gift is tax deductible. Philadelphia Community Bail Fund is fiscally sponsored by Movement Alliance Project (EIN 26-0307123).

Support Paid Staff Positions
The Philadelphia Community Bail Fund started in May 2017 as an all volunteer run effort by community activists and volunteers who came together to bail out Black mamas in time for Mother's Day. Since then our work has grown substantially and is bottom-lined by a core group of dedicated (and over worked) volunteers, mostly Black women, queer folk, and gender non-conforming people. In order to continue to push for an end to cash bail in Philadelphia and to bring our neighbor's home, we expanded our capacity with three paid full time staff positions in 2020.
