Dear Donors, Readers, and Friends:

NewsMatch is back, and it’s more exciting than ever! This year:

Every dollar you give—up to $1,000—will be matched… and then matched again!

As a small-but-mighty organization, our time and resources are spent all year exposing the hidden torture taking place deep within prisons and jails throughout the United States.

We investigate. We uncover. We report. And we drive change.

For over a decade we’ve been both leaders and torchbearers for the movement to bring this unspeakable practice—isolating human beings in cells smaller than a parking space for months, years, even decades—into the light.

The work we do equips advocates, researchers, lawmakers, and even other journalists.

This month, as part of the annual NewsMatch campaign, we’ll be highlighting some of the work we’re proud to have done and our plans for the coming year, and maybe even make some news of our own.

This year NewsMatch will match your donation TWICE, making this the hardest working gift you can give.

If ever there was a time to support the work we do… this is it.

Thanks, as always, for reading, caring, and showing your support.

Jean Casella
Director, Solitary Watch
