Founded in 2017, our mission is to end cash bail and pretrial detention in Philadelphia. Until that day comes, we post bail for our neighbors who cannot afford to pay. phillybailout.org #FreeThemAll #EndCashBail #PrisonsDontWork
We are partnering with youth organizations to connect families to mentorship and support. Last year we brought 10 kids home and paid over $85K in bail.
You can donate at phillybailout.org/donate We'll begin accepting referrals later this month to hopefully free a few youth in time for Thanksgiving!
We are raising funds to support this year's Youth Holiday Bail Out through November 27th. Help us bring youth age 21 and under home for the holidays. We are trying to raise $50,000 to bring youth home for the holidays.

PCBF thanks the Philadelphia Foundation for their recent grant of $50,000 from the S Albert Fund. This grant will enable us to do the vital work of helping to free our neighbors who are jailed pretrial because they cannot afford bail and offer support once they come home.
