I am so glad to discover this forum . My brother is incarcerated in California and I don't know how to send money to him. A bank money order (from a Can. bank) that i sent in U.S. funds has just been returned even though when I called they said they would accept it as long as it was in U.S. funds. It was stamped 'the contents unacceptable - out of state.' I am so frustrated - he needs the money to buy glasses as contacts are not allowed and has very limited vision. I hope someone can help me.

please try the california section...they will be able to better help you ....good luck

Thanks for the suggestion - I will do that and good luck to you too!
