Hot Georgia Summer

Readers who live in GA will know just how hot it can get here in the Peach State. The majority of inmates in the state are housed in buildings without air conditioning. Each dorm may have a couple of fans to help circulate the air and whether these are kept on/ functioning depends on any number of things. Some of us are able to send funds to our loved ones to help them purchase a small fan to help keep a little bit cooler. If you know of someone who is incarcerated or have a penpal in a GA prison please consider asking if they have a fan or if they are in need of one.

Word is that new vendors will soon be taking over in at least a couple of prisons. Stay tuned for a more up to date price list. Also do remember that any funds you wish to send an inmate in the form of money order must be sent to Atlanta instead of to the prison. This is part of what is being called Consolidated Banking. The most cost effective method is to print out a voucher with your inmate’s information. JPay and Western Union are the other two methods. These charge a fee depending on a variety of things.
