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.

Amy - I've known you and your family forever and I know that you will get thru this. You have a beautiful family and a true love for your kids. Ryan is so fortunate to be surrounded by so many people who love him. I only wish that we were closer to be a part of your daily lives. You did a wonderful job on the video! Love to you and the rest of the gang - Andrea

I can access everything on this site, but can't watch any of the videos! What's the secret?

This was beautiful. It made me cry. Ryan is a beautiful child of God with a noble spirit and a wonderful mind that will be released from its prison when Christ returns.
I love you, Ryan.

I have to believe that special people get special kids -- thanks for sharing yours with us. I also believe in 'strength in numbers' and we will all work tirelessly to defeat this.

Hi Amy,
Your video is very touching. I feel your pain too. My son is 17 years old with Aspergers Syndrome Disorder.
Tonight on XM radio channel 156, Dr. Oz was advertising a show he'll be doing this week on autism. I think everyone should try and hear it. I am pretty sure you can post messages to Dr. Oz after the show on the Oprah and Friends XM webpage.
You have a beautiful family.
Stay strong.
