#nyc you want change? You need to donate to organizations that are training formerly incarcerated individuals to earn a living wage. Recidivism occurs because of “lack.” Donate and be part of the solution. 💯 #socialjustice
Refoundry needs your help! Donate today and help us change the course of those who were formerly incarcerated. #socialjustice #rikers #donate #nyc

Non-profits do the good work when government funding runs dry. Thank you @glennEmartin for you donation /matching grant. If anyone believes in truly changing recidivism outcomes, then donate! @RefoundryOrg changes lives. #nyc #brooklyn #socialjustice #training
Contrary to popular belief, I don’t hate ALL non profits. Today I’m donating $10k as a matching grant, so every dollar you give I’ll double up to $10k. @Refoundry trains formerly incarcerated ppl to make home furnishings from discarded materials.

My team is about to have a meeting about hugging. The right to hug. The fact that children throughout the country are not allowed to hug or touch their incarcerated parents in any way. I love that we're in a position to help. I hate that our country hurts so many people so much.

A better way to run prisons, by someone who did time in a U.S. prison, @AkilWaleed. Read it before you say some WOKE shit, please.

Over 4 yrs, I've done more good for others in the pvt sector than I accomplished in the non-profit sector over 17 yrs. Same energy: much more impact.

I HIGHLY recommend Glenn and his incredible team. The non-profit world is like a fine piece of art. It's not meant for everyone, and taking care of it requires a deep understanding and care for the subject. @GemTrainers knows how to curate this appropriately.

Some people say, others do.
I like the "do" kinda people. Everyone else is just taking up air. #nonprofits #change #leaders
Starting or running a non-profit? You raise hell. We'll show you how to raise money.
Actionable advice on how to successfully fundraise in an increasingly competitive & historically inequitable funding environment. Decades of experience on one team.

Progressive criminal justice reformers & foundations keep reminding us that April is #SecondChanceMonth. I wonder if they plan to "restore" Black leaders who they've cancelled over the past few years?
Might be a good place to start. Just a suggestion. Don't cancel the messenger.

You're missing out on great talent.

We asked people in prison what might have helped keep them from committing the crime that led to their incarceration.
Among their responses were:
• affordable housing
• a stable, well-paying job
• mental health support

Would you support a policy of mass decarceration if you knew itd save hundreds of millions in taxpayer funds, reduce likelihood of rearrest, & have no correlation to any increase in violent crime? That’s bail reform in NY & Houston. What racists call “the purge” in Illinois.

More…MORE. OF. THIS.
Our city can’t seem to get it right, but you can. #section8 #housing – at Brooklyn, NY
My formerly incarcerated real estate advisor is renovating 105+ homes simultaneously, most for formerly incarcerated investors. Most of these homes will rent to Section 8 & formerly incarcerated tenants. He’s a beast.
