Notice the name on amywinehousefoundation.com and amywinehousefoundation.co.uk is now changed to:

Registrant's address:
Regency House, 1-4
Warwick Street
London
Greater London
W1B 5LJ
United Kingdom

Though still shows the registrant as Double-0 Loser Promotions. Hope Mitch isn't "renting" the domain off that bloke.

Mitch has been tweeting like crazy today! Check it out.

Among other things, he's clarfying the issue of Fred Perry donations to the foundation (fees and royalties will be donated - not profits). Hmmm - not sure what to think about that one - I thought donations were to come from profits.

Also, he will be supporting Matt Goss (blast from the past alert!) at The Royal Albert Hall. He is also looking for people to submit ideas as to which organizations would benefit most from grants from the foundation.

^I would imagine that would be a good sum being branded for the royalties alone.

Yes, royalties are better than nothing, I suppose. Does that represent the money Amy would have received every time one of her items sold? If so, then wouldn't that money have been owed to Amy's estate anyway? If that's the case then it seems disingenuous of them to state that they are 'donating' the royalties. I'm not sure what the 'fees' are referring to, either.

Anyhow, I suppose it was naïve of me to expect a company to donate profits. Mitch seemed to be under the impression that the foundation would receive the profits, too - until his wife corrected him.

Perhaps Fred Perry could donate a percentage of the profits?

What do I know - it's a business. They have to make money, I suppose.

On top of royalties and fees, Fred Perry will also give a seasonal donation to the foundation according to their blog

My bad... when I typed the message I forgot to include foundation in the domain names posted. But the WHOIS info for the foundation names have changed... her official sites are as-is.

Sorry for the confusion.
