Our Team Fox Members Give 100%. Literally.

Our Team Fox Members Give 100%. Literally.

At The Michael J. Fox Foundation, we know how hard our Team Fox members work to raise every penny they donate-- and we aren't the only ones inspired by their efforts and accomplishments. From the researchers we fund to the patient communities we meet, our Team Fox members’ triumphs often motivate others to deepen their involvement in our collective mission to speed a cure.

In fact, thanks to the generous support of an anonymous donor, all costs incurred by MJFF to run the Team Fox program have been underwritten for 2014. As a result, 100% of all Team Fox proceeds this year will go straight to our high-impact research programs to help speed a cure for Parkinson’s disease. That’s right. Every penny donated by our Team Fox members will have maximum impact on advancing critical research efforts.

While The Michael J. Fox Foundation is not responsible for the expenses Team Fox members incur while planning their events, we have always worked hand-in-hand with them to ensure every event adheres to best practices in fundraising. As a result, we understand how important it is to our members that their donations and event proceeds are spent wisely. At MJFF, efficiency is a hallmark of our model. We are proud to say that 89 cents of every dollar spent goes towards funding research, and we hope that Team Fox's 100% model this year inspires our members and their donors to continue supporting our efforts generously.
