Donald Verger Art Calendars
Did you know Donald is running in the New York Marathon today? He and his fellow team mates are running to raise money for the Innocence Project. Please help and support him in his effort.
The Innocence Project is something dear to his heart. It’s an organization that seeks to redress the injustice suffered by wrongfully convicted individuals.
Donald explained, “I ran my first and only marathon to date 33 years ago. It’s been a long time but as a longtime supporter of the Innocence Project I jumped at this chance to be part of the Innocence Project’s 2013 NYC Marathon team!
I learned firsthand what it is like to be wrongly accused. Back in 2009, I was arrested for a crime I did not commit. I was misidentified by an eyewitness, handcuffed, brought to jail, and put behind bars. I never experienced the presumption of innocence that we all believe exists in this country.
Days later I was finally freed, the experience left me shaken and also made me realize how fortunate I was to have the means to prove my innocence. That’s why I am inspired to raise money and awareness for this worthy cause. No one should go to prison for something they did not do.”
Go, Donald, go!
