Fanatical Change Foundation
The Fanatical Change Foundation is a Houston-based charity 501(c)3 created by businessman Steven Kaufman in 2008 in response to the 2008 Hurricane Ike. It was designed to allow donators to see who was receiving the donations, and collects donations by throwing lavish parties, where attendees can buy tickets and see videos of the families to whom they are donating. As of October 1, 2014, the Foundation has raised over $600,000 for 77 families, and has been sponsored and recognized for its philanthropic efforts. Kaufman also received recognition for creating it, receiving an award from the Houston Astros called the "Hometown Hero."
==History==
The Fanatical Change Foundation first began as a charitable organization for families who have faced tragedies when it was founded by businessman Steven Kaufman in 2008 in response to the 2008 Hurricane Ike. Another reason cited for its creation by Kaufman was a desire to create a charity where donators could fully understand who was receiving the donations. He felt that it filled a niche that other charities typically didn't fill, which lead to the charity model the Fanatical Change Foundation uses today. He is currently the organization's President.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://sbtmagazine.net/radio-archive-march-2012/ )〕 As of October 1, 2014, the foundation has raised more than $600,000 for 77 different families in need in the Houston area.〔 The Fanatical Change Foundation's website features multiple stories of people who went through tragedy and were helped by the organization. Some of the families helped by them include the family of Tony Blocker, who died after being pulled under by a rough surf, and the family of Markese Donahue, who was killed by a gun shot to the chest during a dispute.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.landmarkworldwidenews.com/events/fanatical-change-directly-impacts-people-in-need/ )〕 The Fanatical Change Foundation is a 501(c)3 charity, meaning that it is federally approved and a recognized charity under the Internal Revenue Service in the United States.
