Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends can to send prisoners money through the mail and will have to send funds to this address and do so in accordance with the directions shows below:

The money has to be in the form of a money order that is made out to the inmate’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number.
