Support our Freedom Work
A New Way of Life Reentry Project (ANWOL) is a nationally acclaimed, Black-led organization poised to transform the U.S. approach to criminal justice. We provide safe housing and supportive, individualized resources for formerly incarcerated women to become positive, contributing members of their communities, all at less than half the cost of incarceration.
A New Way of Life’s essential community-based services exist because of the generosity of our dedicated donor friends. Your steadfast support enables us to break down barriers and provide life-changing opportunities for those striving to build meaningful lives. Thank you for being part of their transformative journeys.
Your support is critical to our mission to empower formerly incarcerated women to heal, excel, and lead while disrupting systems of oppression and harm. A New Way of Life Reentry Project is a 501(c)(3) and your financial support may be tax deductible. We thank you in advance for your one-time or recurring donation!
