April 2020 winner Equal Justice Initiative

Last night we named Charitocracy's 44th monthly winner. Congratulations to Equal Justice Initiative, nominated by 3rd-time winning donors Alistair and Rebecca, the same power duo that nominated last month's winner! EJI work to end mass incarceration and excessive punishment in the United States, challenge racial and economic injustice, and protect basic human rights for the most vulnerable people in American society. You can find their web page here.

Now you have a week to further sweeten the pot with a special one-time donation of any amount, which we'll add straight to the check we write to Equal Justice Initiative.

Before you go, check out the trailer for film Just Mercy, based on the true story of winner Equal Justice Initiative's founder and director, Bryan Stevenson. Then, after you inevitably go rent it, feel good about your part in our collective $1284+ grant to help with their ongoing work!

Have a great May, stay safe, and be sure to log into Charitocracy to update your votes or nominate a new cause!
