Fundraising with GoGetFunding UPDATE March 18, 2014: Marissa Alexander was sentenced to 20 years for defending her life from an abusive husband, but she appealed and was granted a new trial. Now she faces 60 years in prison if she is not acquitted in the upcoming trial, scheduled for July 28, 2014. All funds raised are for the Marissa Alexander Legal Defense Fund to help win the trial and secure her freedom. Marissa's supporters raised $22,029 in Nov-Dec 2013. Then we raised $41,410 in Jan-Mar 2014. Let's raise another $40,000 by the date of her new trial, July 28, 2014!
