The Mockingbird Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by Phish fans in 1996 to generate charitable proceeds from the Phish community.
And since we're entirely volunteer – with no office, salaries, or paid staff – administrative costs are less than 2% of revenues! So far, we've distributed over $2 million to support music education for children – hundreds of grants in all 50 states, with more on the way.
Also, since switching to the new format, the Blog has won once (and one user got two of the jams), the users have won once before the hint, and the users have won after the hint three times. That's a much more reasonable breakdown than where the older format had gotten to, where it almost never went to the hint, and many times the MJM was solved so quickly that 90% of the users didn't even get a chance to listen to it before it was over. So while we will certainly be mixing in single jam MJMs (i.e. the classic format), we'll never give away more than one code per week (except when there's carry-over from previous weeks, or during special contests a la MJM 200).
