Michael Jackson Fans For Charity (MJFFC) is a fan made charity, inspired by artist and humanitarian, Michael Joseph Jackson.
Our mission is to enable EVERY Michael Jackson fan on the planet to be able to carry on where Michael left off. We do this by providing millions of Michael Jackson fans around the World with a low cost way of making a HUGE difference. It can be likened to how crowdfunding works, lots of small amounts that make up a large amount. The way we do this is through our Michael Jackson Monthly Giving Project and it can be joined from just £1 per month.
Simple facts about our charity:
- 100% to charity - After PayPal transaction fees, 100% goes to a shortlisted charity every month, in memory of Michael Jackson.
- Zero Salary - We are all volunteers, so no-one gets paid.
- Minimal Expenses - Admin and fundraising fees are kept to a minimum and even then, are only funded by UK Gift Aid, which we claim ourselves separately on qualifying UK donations. Any personal expenses are covered with our own money.
- Transparency - We show detailed records of each monthly payout (see here).
- Registration - MJFFC is a not-for-profit organisation recognised as charitable by HMRC for tax purposes. We have found a way to become registered with the Charity Commission in the UK, even with a low income so this is being looked into in 2018!
We raise money by:
- Our Monthly giving system we call Michael Jackson Monthly Giving.
- Providing tools such as Easy Fundraising, Ebay Auctions, MJFFC branded clothing and more, to increase donations made in memory.
We hope that other Michael Jackson fans find it in their hearts to help us along this amazing journey in creating the ultimate, long-term, tribute to Michael Jackson, his family and Michael Jacksons Fans.
