InmateAid was set up with this in mind. You can set up a member/user account and sync it to an inmate profile that you create or one that is already created by clicking "follow". You may then write your inmate, send them photos of you and your family, holiday times or other occasions where you are thinking of your inmate. You can create cheaper inmate calling with our Discount Telephone Service, you can send magazine subscriptions from thousands of titles or books from our Amazon link. Anything that will help your inmate do their time, we have the service for you.
