Welcome Home Henry!

Henry Phillips was given a Life Without Parole sentence for stealing 20 dollars out of a wallet that he took off a counter at a McDonald’s in 2009. In August 2021, Mr. Phillips reached a new plea agreement with the Orleans Parish District Attorney’s office that allowed him to be resentenced, and the judge sentenced him to time served. Mr. Phillips is now 65 years old, and his extended family is thrilled to finally welcome him home after more than a decade.

All money collected will go to Mr. Phillips and his family, to help him restart his life, helping him get forms of identification, food, clothing, and medical care.
