The state’s legal nonprofits are gearing up for Georgia Gives Day, the annual day of donations that’s part of the national Giving Tuesday initiative to help raise money for charities across the United States.
In Georgia, the need for donations in this Tuesday’s fundraising drive is “extremely urgent” for the Georgia Innocence Project, said its spokeswoman, Blis Savidge. According to its website, the Project is “dedicated to helping individuals who have been convicted of crimes they did not commit in the state of Georgia,” and its mission is “to prevent and correct wrongful convictions while also connecting freed clients to resources to rebuild their lives.” It also focuses on education and policy reform, Savidge said.
