The Railroading of Paul Shanley

How You Can help

You can make a donation to Paul Shanley's defense by sending your contribution to:

With your donation, please include a note recommending a distribution to the Paul Shanley Defense Fund and indicating whether this will be a tax-deductible donation. As well as acting as a fiscal sponsor for such funds, the NCRJ educates the public about prisoners and defendants like Paul Shanley, who are falsely accused of crimes against children.

The NCRJ's Board of Directors distributes money in its Prisoner Legal Defense Fund by balancing the desires of the donors with the needs of their grantees. If you are making a tax-deductible donation, the NCRJ's Board of Directors will take your wishes into serious consideration, but they cannot promise you to deposit all of it in Paul Shanley's fund. If they did, the IRS would disallow your tax deduction for that donation. For more information on the tax laws governing such contributions, we recommend you consult your own accountant or attorney.

You may also make your contribution by credit card.
