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.

I couldn't see the video but hope I get counted in for the effort.
shame on you Bob for your BLAH on 1/17/08 4:28 a.m. this morning ... you have obviously been fortunate to not have anyone around you plagued with a disorder... read the statistics on autism... it is all around you if you would get your head out of your butt to notice.

I must be missing something. I'm not seeing any video or any link to a video. I'll try again later from home.

I quite understand. My life is enriched everyday
by my grandson who's 4 years old. He looks at life with simplicity, laughter and innocence.
One minute at a time. Thoughts are with you.

Nothing means more to my husband and I than this charity. Our son, Johnny was diagnosed at 4 yrs old with Aspergers. At 10 yrs old, he struggles on a daily basis. We pray that the world will be a kinder and more understanding place for all of these kids!

I totally understand. That is always my wish is to find a cure for Autsim as my 8 year old son suffers from it and for him to just have a normal life. I know your pain. My prayers are with you and your family.

Your son is very young yet, believe me when I say that you will come to terms with your childs autism and find the joy in who he is, instead of concentrating on what could have been. My daughter is 11 now and, although she is hard work, she is a very special little girl, unique and happy in her own world. Understand him and take small steps at his level and you will connect, not in the usual ways, but in very special ways which are so personal and special.
