How This Works
For all donations, whatkindofworlddoyouwant.com will distribute approximately 90% of money donated to the selected charities. This is determined primarily by the amount of views per charity and available funds. The 10% expense includes Revver.com's .01/view webhosting cost, California Community Foundation's 1.25% administrative expense and site maintenance. Contributions to the California Community Foundation represent irrevocable gifts subject to the legal and fiduciary control of the foundation's Board of Directors.
For videos which have received 30,000 or more views, whatkindofworlddoyouwant.com may elect to add a click through advertisement at the end of such videos to defray web hosting expenses. As our objective is to donate the most funds possible to our charities, this will eliminate substantial expenses incurred by revver's .01 per view charge on videos with millions of views.
whatkindofworlddoyouwant.com is the property of John Ondrasik and is administrated by John and the Five For Fighting management team at Jim Grant Management.
whatkindofworlddoyouwant.com has no paid staff or personnel.

A heartfelt subject that maost people tend to look other other way on. Yes, abuse does exist and it takes this type of information to educate the general public. We can no longer look the other way. Thanks for the education and for a truthful and sensitive video. Well done.

Beautiful children, yet tragic statistics. How is it that "the state" puts children into homes where they are being raped? Don't they run background checks on these people? Don't the children have a way to report their sexual predators to "the state" without being harmed in the process? God bless these children!

Candiace, this was a very touching video, your video touched my heart in many ways. I am a social worker I have been for 23 years know. You have opened my eyes back up. I lost my heart in this job as many social workers do. I have found it again thanks to you.

I will tell you why John, because the system always believes they know what is best for a child. I have a freind, she was a single mom raising her girl. she was not on wellfare, and she had a great job at home. Her daughter was well provided for. But because she showed up late for school a couple of times the school decided to step in and try to take my friends daughter from her. In fact they even asked the daughter, do you want a different family. If so just tell me, and we could get you a better family right now. Now you have to ask yourself, why in the heck would a system that is supposed to care about these kids, put a 9 year old girl through that?

candiace, wow this video is great, I dont know where to start but to tell you thank you you have given foster children a little help with letting them hear there side and how they feel. Every kid does need a home to call there own. Why hasn't anything been down yet? why do social workers keep takeing children away if they are better off at home?

Bless you all. Thank you so much for sharing your story. As a parent of 3 kids , I am moved beyond mere words. We all must advocate for our children because our children will one day lead the world. May God bless each person who responds with a loving heart and donates much needed financial support to fund research. Together, we can make a difference. May God bless you and your loving family. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.
