With deep appreciation, the Great North Innocence Project recognizes the vital contributions of our Benefit for Innocence sponsors. Support at the Champion, Defender, Advocate, and Ally level are crucial to the Great North Innocence Project’s continued growth in wrongful conviction justice within the areas of investigation and litigation, education and outreach, and advocacy.
Sponsor the 2026 Benefit for Innocence
The Great North Innocence Project is seeking corporate and law firm sponsors for our 2026 Benefit for Innocence on Wednesday, September 23, at Nicollet Island Pavilion as we celebrate 25 years of freeing innocent people and preventing wrongful convictions.
Benefit sponsorship directly supports GNIP’s work to:
- investigate innocence claims and provide free legal representation to wrongfully convicted people
- support clients returning home after years of wrongful incarceration
- educate community members on the causes and consequences of wrongful convictions
- advocate for policies that remedy and prevent future wrongful convictions
Become a sponsor and support justice for the innocent.
If you’re interested in becoming a sponsor of GNIP’s work to free the wrongfully convicted, please contact Deandra Bieneman, Development Director, at dbieneman@gn-ip.org.
