We're elated to share the profound impact of RAW's recent $100,000 donation to Last Prisoner Project (LPP), a contribution that has played a pivotal role in helping constituents like Kyle Page and Stephanie Shepard in rebuilding their lives.
Kyle Page's story is a testament to resilience in the face of adversity. After enduring six years behind bars for a nonviolent cannabis offense, Kyle's journey to freedom seemed like an insurmountable feat. Today, Kyle stands as a beacon of hope—a living testament to the transformative power of collective action and unwavering perseverance.
Similarly, Stephanie Shepard's remarkable journey from incarceration to advocacy exemplifies the transformative impact of support like RAW's. Sentenced to ten years in the Federal Bureau of Prisons for a first-time, non-violent cannabis offense, Stephanie's resilience remained unyielding. Now serving as the Director of Advocacy for LPP and Chairwoman on the Board of Directors, Stephanie channels her experiences into meaningful advocacy initiatives aimed at restoring dignity and freedom to those unjustly incarcerated.
With the relentless advocacy efforts supported by RAW's donation, we have not only facilitated the liberation of individuals like Kyle and Stephanie but has also catalyzed systemic change. By empowering LPP's advocacy efforts, RAW is helping to dismantle the barriers that perpetuate cannabis criminalization, paving the way for a future where justice and equality prevail.
The $100,000 is allocated toward two different goals. Half the funds are working to help individuals who were recently released from prison on cannabis-related charges to provide them with the reentry resources to help them get back on their feet. The other half is funding programs intended to assist individuals who were incarcerated under non-violent cannabis-related crimes.
As we gear up to celebrate new victories, RAW reaffirms their commitment to supporting organizations like LPP in their tireless pursuit of justice. Together, we can continue to champion the rights of those affected by cannabis criminalization and ensure that stories like Kyle's and Stephanie's inspire meaningful reform.
Thank you to RAW for their unwavering support and dedication to creating a more just and equitable world. LPP looks forward to continuing our work with Raw and highlighting more impactful and uplifting stories in the future.
