Locked In, Not Left Out - Commissary Giveaway
Powered by Zeffy – 100% Free for Nonprofits
We’ve partnered with Zeffy, the only fundraising platform that gives 100% of your donation directly to Open Gate Transitional Services. That means no transaction fees, no processing fees—just pure impact.
Zeffy operates entirely on voluntary contributions to keep the platform free for nonprofits like ours. Before completing your donation, you’ll see a suggested amount to support Zeffy. You can always change that amount by selecting “Other” in the dropdown and entering what feels right for you.
Your support helps us continue building housing, restoring families, and giving incarcerated and formerly incarcerated individuals a fresh start.
Every dollar matters. Every act of kindness counts.
Thank you for being part of the Open Gate mission.
Locked In, Not Left Out – Commissary Relief Giveaway
Because no one deserves to feel forgotten.
Locked In, Not Left Out is a heartfelt initiative created by Open Gate Transitional Services, Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to restoring hope and dignity to incarcerated individuals and their families.
This Commissary Relief Giveaway is our way of saying: we see you, we care, and you are not alone. We understand the financial strain families face when trying to support their loved ones inside—especially when canteen prices continue to rise without warning or regulation.
Through this initiative, we will award three winners :
-
🥇 $150 – 1st Place
-
🥈 $75 – 2nd Place
-
🥉 $50 – 3rd Place
All funds are mailed directly to the resident’s State Inmate Trust Account, offering relief and support in real, tangible ways—from hygiene products to snacks, food items, and essentials.
Every donation toward this program helps us do more. Not just now—but long term. It strengthens our ability to fight for policy changes, offer emergency aid, and keep families connected.
Help us keep our people fed, supported, and reminded that they are not forgotten—no matter how far behind the walls they are.
