SAN QUENTIN, Calif. — San Quentin State Prison officials presented a $38,232 check Monday to seven Bay Area agencies that provide services to crime victims.
The money represents 20 percent of the wages earned by 30 prison inmates who assemble medical devices, San Quentin State Prison spokesman Sgt. Gabe Walters said.
Each of the seven agencies will receive $5,400.
San Quentin State Prison Warden Mike Martel formed a committee to select the nonprofit agencies that will receive the share of the inmates’ wages, Walters said.
