REFORM Alliance Gala Raises $20M for Criminal Justice Reform
The REFORM Alliance has influenced 22 laws in 12 states and aims to reduce probation terms and technical violations through new bipartisan legislation, organizers said.
- On September 13, 2025, REFORM Alliance held its second Casino Night event at Atlantic City's Ocean Casino Resort to generate funds in support of criminal justice reform.
- The event was the culmination of years of advocacy by the founders of REFORM Alliance, including the well-known rapper, an athlete-turned-entrepreneur, and a major music industry figure, all working to reform probation and parole laws and reduce penalties for technical violations.
- Celebrities like Beyoncé, Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner, and The Weeknd attended the black-tie gala, which featured a live auction and performances to raise over $20 million.
- The auction featured a one-of-a-kind George Condo painting that sold for $3.4 million, and a charity golf experience with Tom Brady at Michael Jordan’s private Grove XXIII course that brought in $1.8 million, followed by a 40-minute performance by The Weeknd.
- The funds will support nationwide efforts to reform probation supervision, potentially benefiting 3.7 million people and focusing resources on serious cases to reduce unnecessary incarceration.
