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.

My son is currently undiagnosed, but is suspected to have Angelman Syndrome, not too different from autism. I love your beautiful video. What a lucky family to have such a cutie. =)

This is a beautiful tribute to the beauties and love a child with autism can bring to a family and to the world. Awareness needs to be spread...thank you.

I know that God knew what He was doing when he gave Michael to the most loving family that I have ever met. Their devotion to Michael and his sister Nicole are evident in everything that they do. Michael is truly blessed to belong to such a wonderful, loving and caring family and I'm sure that with their dedication and all of the prayers that have been said and will continue to be said for Michael that he will have a wonderful life. I'm sure that although the world may view his autism as a handicap…I bet that he doesn't feel that at all but only the love of those who make up his world. May God continue to bless not only Michael but his mom Bernice, his dad Jim, his big sister Nicole and his grandma Delia and all of those how are a part of his world.
