Official Tournament Charity
The Mockingbird Foundation
The Mockingbird Foundation broadens access and educational opportunities for young people in music and the musical arts.
The Mockingbird Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by Phish fans in 1997 to generate charitable proceeds from the Phish community and beyond. Since we’re entirely volunteer administrative costs are less than 5% of revenues! So far, we’ve distributed over $2.1M to support music education for children – 606 grants in all 50 states!
Funds are raised through individual donations; projects including Phish.net, The Phish Companion (the definitive encyclopedia of Phish information), and Sharin’ in the Groove (a wildly successful two-disc tribute album); special events, including wine tastings and golf tournaments; unique donation premiums and branded merchandise available from the Phish.net Store; as well as through various related strategic partnerships, a portion of LivePhish proceeds, and third-party benefit events.
Mockingbird started as an all-volunteer non-profit in 1996 in order to raise money for music education for children. The original impetus was the compilation of the most accurate and literary book on Phish’s music available. We’ve done that, in three highly successful editions, as well as taken on a wide range of projects, including an album, art, special events, and branded merchandise.
The Mockingbird Foundation has no salaries, paid staff, office space, or endowment — thus distributing all possible funds to charity. No director or volunteer benefits financially from the Foundation in any way, and all proceeds from Mockingbird projects are donated to tax-exempt organizations. The Foundation’s primary purpose is charitable, with more than $1.9M in grants to 534 grantees covering all 50 states.
