Urgent Appeal from Kindred Spirits!

Kindred Spirits provides friendship and personal support to prisoners in Florida under sentence of death. KS is an all volunteer organization established in 1991 and it is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Each quarter Kindred Spirits makes a small deposit in the accounts of many death row prisoners, most of whom have no family or financial help of any kind. This money is used to buy such things as shoes, toothpaste, writing paper, thermal underwear in winter, or a snack from the canteen. Kindred Spirits also sends letters, stamps, and birthday cards to prisoners. All of this is done through volunteers with virtually no administrative costs. Until now, the organization has been funded through donations and also a small church grant. These monies are running out and there is an urgent need for donations of any size before the next quartrly contributions to prisoner accounts is made in mid-April. Please help with any amount by sending a check to: Audrey Rivers, Kindred Spirits Charitable Trust, 820 McGuire Avenue, Tallahassee, Florida 32303.
