Damien, Jason and Jessie are in great need of funds for their commissary accounts...this is a great way for you to help them!
What is a Commissary Fund and how do I donate to it?
A: The Commissary Funds allow Damien, Jason and Jessie to buy items that most folks take for granted, including soap, toothpaste, coffee, envelopes, stamps, or a soda. You now also have the option to donate to their Pre-Pay Phone Service Account, to help offset the cost of their phone calls.
From Damien: "You truly have no idea how big a difference it makes. I’ve been using it [commissary funds] to buy decent food, things like wheat bread, powdered milk, V-8 juice, vitamins, nuts and dehydrated fruit, granola bars, etc. It makes a huge difference in your life when you’re not eating rotten boiled squash and spoiled chicken at every meal. Thank you very, very much. Would you post something on the site telling everyone that I said ’Thanks?’"
There are several ways that you can donate to the Commissary Funds.
The Arkansas Department of Corrections offers the Inmate Banking Deposit Service https://www.ark.org/doc/inmatebanking/index.php. They accept Visa, Mastercard and Discover credit card payments. The minimum deposit is $10.00 and there is a 5% transaction fee. You will need to enter an ADC Inmate Number to get past the first page. Please use 000931 for Damien, 103335 for Jason (don’t be alarmed when you see Charles Baldwin listed -- that is Jason), and 103072 for Jessie.
If you would like to mail in your Commissary Fund donation, please remember that you must use the Arkansas Department of Corrections deposit slip. We’ve provided that online here. The address to send the money order and form is right on the deposit slip. You can only send a money order -- no cash or checks -- and you will need the Inmate’s ADC Number to complete the form. Damien’s is SK931, Jason’s is 103335, and Jessie’s is 103072.
Important: Please do not send a letter intended for Jason, Jessie or Damien with the money order or the letter and money order will be returned to you.
