How to Send Money to Facility
Money rules vary a lot by facility. Right now, the only confirmed guidance available is for addressing mail and sending photos. Start there, then verify money options directly with the facility.
Use the exact address format the facility requires. Mail should be addressed like this: "Name PPN#123456 CFCF 7901 State Rd. Philadelphia, PA 19136." Getting the name and PPN number right matters. The correct format helps your mail reach the right person without delays.
If you include photos, keep them small and keep the content clean. Photos must be 5 in. x 7 in. or smaller, and they cannot feature nudity, weapons, money, or drug use. The person you're writing to can only have up to five pictures in their possession at a time, so sending a large stack at once can create problems even if the photos themselves are allowed.
Steps to Follow
- ✓ Address the envelope exactly as: “Name PPN#123456 CFCF 7901 State Rd. Philadelphia, PA 19136.”
- ✓ Keep any mailed photos at 5 in. x 7 in. or smaller.
- ✓ Do not send photos showing nudity, weapons, money, or drug use.
- ✓ Remember the person can only have up to five pictures total, so send fewer if they already have some.
Before you send anything, double-check the facility's current rules for (1) the required mailing address format, and (2) photo limits, size, and content restrictions. These are the only mailing details confirmed here, and policies can change. If you're trying to send money, you'll also need the facility's approved method(s) and any deposit limits. Confirm those directly with the facility before you pay.
Note: Photos that include nudity, weapons, money, or drug use can be rejected. When in doubt, choose a different picture.
