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.
I also wanted to mention that I like the SPAC '04 run, but I think @ProfPhan puffed them up a tad too much - are they really so much better than any of the shows I mentioned above, which I'd say are not the equal of this show? And I am not a big fan of the "oh, if they played (fill in classic jam here), you guys would be BUGGING OUT" argument. I would suggest that if they played the 6/19/04 Piper in pretty much any show after 1993 (when, you know, they had the chops to *actually play it*), people would be freaking the fuck out in those shows too. That's kind of the point of a classic jam. Stick that Piper in 11/22/97 or Big Cypress or Fukuoka and people would go "damn, that was a hot jam". I feel like the four fantastic jams in this show will help me overcome the disappointment of not having that one fantastic jam, thanks.
