Mission statement
Johnny’s Angels: Depp Fans For CharityTM is a meaningful way for Depp fans to honor an actor whose talent and humanity have inspired so many. We have three basic goals:
To raise funds for Children's Hospice and Palliative Care Coalition, a charity Johnny Depp has supported for years.
To help families in need find out more about children’s hospice options in their local area.
To raise public awareness of the needs of sick children and their families.
Our beliefs
We believe that no family should ever have to care for a dying child without support.
We believe it is unacceptable that 92% of children throughout the world who lose their battle with terminal illness die without hospice or palliative care to help control their agonizing pain.
Frequently asked questions
Do you have a question? E-mail us and we will do our best to answer it!
♦ Does Johnny Depp know and approve of what you are doing in his name?
When this group first started, Children's Hospice contacted Mr. Depp's management on behalf of us about the use of his name for this project and we were given approval. At that point we didn't know if Mr. Depp himself knew about us and/or approved of what we are doing, but last year we received a letter from him personally that you can read HERE.
♦ Do you have any financial support?
No. We don't have any funding whatsoever. All work is conducted by a small group of dedicated women who are doing this on a voluntary basis to raise funds and awareness for Children's Hospice and give something back to a talented actor whose actions both in movies and life have inspired so many.
♦ When was Johnny's Angels formed?
The group was initially formed in 2007.
♦ Do you have the support and blessings of Children's Hospice?
Children's Hospice have been enthusiastic and supportive of our work from the very beginning, and we look forward to continue working with them on this endeavor.
♦ Does all money donated through Johnny's Angels go to Children's Hospice?
Yes. 100% of all money donated through us goes directly to Children's Hospice & Palliative Care Coalition.
