Inside high-security prisons, I see hope grow when I tell people that @cz_binance has made four separate $500,000 donations, written about his support in his book, #FreedomofMoney, and discussed his support in media interviews.
Support from CZ inspired Web3 innovators to launch https://t.co/UmXE3w3U1u. That community has contributed more than 1,040 $BNB. Those resources now approach $1 million, and we'll resource them to further our mission of providing free educational resources to people in prison.
Generosity from our sponsors reinforces a message I share in every prison presentation: When you invest in yourself, you give others a reason to invest in you.
Some people ask how much I personally make from these donations. My answer begins with the same three promises I make to every prison audience:
1. I will never lie to you.
2. I will never ask you to do anything I didn’t do.
3. I work without a salary or financial compensation.
To date, we have not spent even $1 of the donations generated from our sponsors @PrisonProf_BNB.
Our work helps people recognize that they can become their own Prison Professor—building a curriculum, developing skills, and documenting their preparation for a better life. Those efforts can help break intergenerational cycles of poverty and recidivism.
Today, 9,264 people participate in our programs. They have published more than 18.2 million words on our platform, creating a record of their learning, reflection, and preparation.
Tomorrow, I begin another series of presentations in high-security federal prisons. I hope more people will use our free resources to begin building their own pathways to success.
I’m grateful to CZ, the Web3 #BNB community, and every sponsor who helps us bring these opportunities into prisons. We're striving to be the change we want to see in the world, and a real-life case study of how Web3 contributes to the making of a better world.
We will stay on mission: free education, preparation, and pathways to a better future.

Are humans genetically engineered to create a positive impact? 🏛️
As @cz_binance highlighted in the following clip, helping others isn't just a choice, is what makes us intrinsically happy.
True fulfillment doesn't come from chasing an arbitrary target; it comes from deploying whatever skills and resources we have to do our absolute best towards a greater cause.
This human philosophy is the exact bridge between our community, @MichaelGSantos, and the Prison Professors mission.
When decentralized capital aligns with transparent execution, human goodwill transforms into tangible reform, delivering real and tangible tools to break generational cycles of poverty and recidivism.
Doing our best to leave a positive footprint isn't just an ideal. It's the non-negotiable foundation for lasting, systemic reform.

Building relationships with wardens is an essential part of our mission and strategy. We must overcome obstacles. They allow us to distribute free educational resources to people in prison. Grateful to wardens and our sponsors @cz_binance and @PrisonProf_BNB for supporting our mission.
Who truly drives systemic change inside a correctional facility? 🏛️
It isn't just the funding, the platform, or the sponsors.
It begins with the individuals who decides to take complete ownership of their future.
While we are deeply honored to support @MichaelGSantos mission alongside @cz_binance, by providing transparent Web3 capital;
The real heroes are the men and women behind those walls actively committing to their own transformation journey every single day.
By enrolling in programs like "Preparing for Success After Prison," documenting their personal milestones, and sharing their journey, these individuals are becoming their own Prison Professors.
They are doing the hard, daily work required to break intergenerational cycles of poverty and recidivism from within.
The numbers speak to their dedication:
• 9,200+ Profiles created and lives transformed;
• 46,000+ Stories Documented & Published;
• 199+ Active Facilities Nationwide.
As September comes to a close, marking another impactful month of presentations across federal facilities, sponsors and participants stand aligned.
Capital provides the pathway, but personal determination drives the transformation.

When I visit a high-security federal prison, my first goal is to earn trust.
During the first hour, I share what I learned while serving 26 years in prison and how the work I did inside helped me build a meaningful life after release. As people recognize that I understand the challenges they face, they become more willing to listen—and to consider what they can accomplish.
Then I introduce Prison Professors as a platform that supports their efforts. I encourage each person to become their own “Prison Professor”: take ownership of their education, use our free resources to build a curriculum around their goals, and document their progress. Every step can help them strengthen their candidacy for higher levels of liberty and prepare for success after prison.
In the final hour, we move into questions, answers, and role playing. Participants practice communicating their goals, explaining their progress, and showing how they can contribute to society.
Through that process, I want people to see possibilities for their future. By investing in themselves today, they can prepare to recognize, create, and make the most of opportunities ahead.
With more than 9,200 people participating in our program, our mission extends beyond any single presentation. We help people build pathways to success that can strengthen families and end intergenerational cycles of recidivism and poverty.
I’m grateful to @cz_binance and @PrisonProf_BNB and all the sponsors who make this work possible. Their generosity allows us to bring free educational resources—and a practical message of hope—to people in prison.
Big news! My dad is officially a proud holder of our @PrisonProf_BNB token.
He’s in town from LA and it’s so enjoyable walking him through progress I’m making personally and professionally. A little known fact is my dad owns a business in Los Angeles and the majority of people he’s always hired are formally incarcerated.
@MichaelGSantos met my dad in prison (and many times since). To say he felt out of place seeing me there is an understatement. For a while my dad blamed himself, something I also do as a parent.
Michael used to get to visits before me, around 8:45am. I’d get down around 11am, after count cleared.
Before I got into visitation, Michael would often walk over (he did this with my mom, too) and say, “your son is doing great. He’s preparing to go home. He’s making use of this time. Soon he will be home with you.”
It always helped.
When I see my dad he says two things, in this order: “Dodgers look solid. How’s Michael? Your mom and I still talk about how fortunate you were to meet him. What a blessing.”
They have no idea!

How do we measure the true value of a Web3 mission?
Not through speculative noise. It is measured by real-world execution, verified trust, and tangible impact created in the field.
We are truly appreciative and grateful by the recent recognition from Web3 visionaries and investors such as @DopamineFeenFr1@jj_jsea and many others and, above all, by @MichaelGSantos acknowledging @PrisonProf_BNB alongside @cz_binance as the main sponsors, delivering zero-cost educational resources to federal facilities.
Inspired by @cz_binance and his reflections on philanthropy and supporting impactful causes, our mission is clear: deploying transparent Web3 capital on @BNBCHAIN directly into a verified non-profit organization.
Together, we empower individuals with free tools to break intergenerational cycles of poverty and recidivism.

We extend our sincere gratitude to every advocate and investor standing alongside us.
Systemic reform demands unwavering vision, and we remain committed to driving transparent and efficient impact.

$PP is one of those coins where I genuinely had to stop and look twice 😂
CZ has donated $2M to the actual mission.
The PP Web3 community has raised 1,000+ BNB too.
The community is putting real money behind it.
There’s a real story behind the token.
And somehow the market cap is still tiny.
Like bro… are we early or are we just collectively stupid? 😭
Either way, I’m sitting with my $PP and letting the story play out.
No need to force it.
If the narrative catches fire, we’ll know why we were here early. 👀
$PP 🫡🚀
@MichaelGSantos@PrisonProf_BNB@cz_binance
Every buy and sell on $PP sends 3% straight to Prison Professors. Books, education, second chances…
On top of that, @cz_binance already put $2M into this mission.
Michael Santos also clearly said the funds coming from the token will be used for the project.
This isn’t speculation. There’s measurable impact.
That’s why I separate #PP from the rest.
