The Phish Companion: 3rd Edition
THE MOCKINGBIRD FOUNDATION, INC. was founded in 1996 by fans of the band Phish to raise funds for music education. With no salaries, staff, office, or endowment, the 11 directors live in 8 states, have supported grantees in 43 states, and work with volunteers worldwide. The foundation exists almost exclusively online, using the Internet for publicity, fundraising, all internal communications, and even to develop, produce, and distribute intellectual property. Mockingbird now utilises blogs, forums, RSS feeds, Twitter, and Facebook; and publishes content to a dozen other sites through a set of APIs, and to four mobile device apps through strategic partnerships.
