EXCLUSIVE

Alice Marie Johnson was so inspired by Kim Kardashian West[1]'s efforts to spring her from a life prison sentence that she wants to help Kim do the same for others.

We spoke with the 63-year-old great grandmother, and she told us Kim was truly the difference maker in President Trump[2]'s decision to commute her sentence.

Not only did Alice offer love and praise for KKW -- even calling her an official member of the Johnson family -- Alice says she's down to help Kim in her fight[3] for prison reform and to free anyone given unfair sentences.

As we reported ... Kim's been on a mission for Alice for months, working and communicating[4] with Jared Kushner[5] and Ivanka Trump[6] even before the White House meeting. As we first reported, Alice even sent a heartfelt thank-you note[7] to Kim last year ... long before her freedom was a done deal.

imageWe also asked Alice what she's most looking forward to outside of life behind bars ... let's just say it's nothing money can buy.
