About US
The Help Earth FoundationHEF offers unique solutions for
local charities, nonprofits and community groups to bring
much needed awareness and support to their causes
by leveraging musicians' and entertainers' "content" and
public stature to generate revenue and visibility.
HEF works with musicians
and entertainers ((that agree)) to donate a percentage
of profits to HEF from the sales of online & retail products.
These
funds
will
go back to support
causes and organizations on the local level that the artist
and HEF have agreed to support.
HEF was founded by entreprenuer and activist, Nelson
Jacobsen aided with the guidence of many gifited and gracious
folks; some of whom serve our our corporate board.
The idea came
to
him after a variety of obstacles he experienced setting
up
and
implementing
the
Tsunami Band
Aid
project, which successfully brought artists, clubs, charities
and politicians
together to support the Boxer Day Tsunami. During his
work on this initiative, it became evident that having
a foundation
in
which
all of the elements (artists, charities, etc.) had
relationships before they came together would have allowed
for a better
and more robust effort.
Just as trading business cards at the disaster
site is the first failure, the other one we keep seeing over
and over
again is trying to put artists, nonprofits, and the public
together in a process that needs to be in place and transparent
before a disaster or need arises.
