Selena's
Family Thanks You for your donations to THE SELENA FOUNDATION. Your
donations will go In Memory and In Honor of Selena to charitable
organizations that help children in crisis.
The
Selena Foundation Mission Statement:
"To offer the motivation that every
child needs to complete their education, to live moral lives,
to love their families, to respect human life and to sing
whatever song they were born to sing."
Thank you for your interest in donating to The Selena Foundation. It is our
pleasure to provide you with any information you need in making your proposed
contribution.
The Selena Foundation was established in May 1995 to receive the donations
that came to us shortly after Selena's death. Most contributions were sent
with condolences to the family and simply said to please do something with
the donation in Selena's memory. The Selena Foundation was established in response
to those requests. We are honored to have had a generous response from many
individuals as well as a number of corporate contributions. The following list
will give you an idea of the diversity of our corporate donors.
