Help returning citizens get living wage jobs.

At FreeWorld, we help people coming home from prison earn their CDL-A and land good-paying jobs in the trucking industry. Graduates can support themselves and their families, reducing cycles of generational poverty and incarceration.

  • +2,200 FreeWorld graduates have earned their CDL-A and landed careers in the trucking industry!
  • The average starting salary for graduates is $60,000, more than four times the national average for people returning from prison.
  • Our recidivism rate is under 10%, compared to more than 60% nationally.

“FreeWorld believed in me and gave me the tools to change my life for the better. The guidance, the encouragement, and the chance to start a real career.” — FreeWorld Graduate

But we can’t do it without your help.

  • $10/month covers DMV fees for one student each month.
  • $20/month covers a birth certificate for a new student.
  • $50/month gets a student to class or the DMV with a paid Uber ride.
  • $75 (one-time) covers CDL testing fees.
  • $100 (one-time) pays for a DOT physical so a student can start training.
  • $375 (one-time) provides a week of housing, food, and transportation support.
