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.
**Your donations will also fund the completion of our fan point system where fans are rewarded for face value transactions and trades. We hope this will become the incentive that members needs to keep things at face value.
The common scenario:
"Dude, I know I told you I would take your ticket for face, but now I see that they are in high supply, so how about $20 instead of face". This same friend will complain all day long about them going for $100 above face.
We agree, below face value is just as bad as above face because in the end the fan loses. The deflation of ticket prices makes it difficult for members to get their money back if they can't make the show, and the inflation makes it hard to buy a ticket for hundreds of dollars. CashorTrade.org is about all fans winning, all the time. We hope our new services will help provide the incentive members need to maintain at face value all the time.
If you are a true fan, support the fans. We encourage you to buy tickets at face and your chances of scoring a hard to get ticket at face increases. Follow through, pay face value, gain reviews, become a gold member and you will be rewarded for your participation. The amount of positive transactions at face value has been astounding. You are making it happen, and Dusty and I are honored to be a part of the process.
We are all in it together, and none of us need to take a bath on tickets. See you in Maine. Can't wait. Party time opener?
