As people mourn the death of the pop star Michael Jackson, fans, the news media, and others are discussing his charitable work, which some say paved the way for all celebrity philanthropy since.

Michael Jackson supported dozens of charities during his life, including USA for Africa, the Make-a-Wish Foundation, and the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation.  Directly or indirectly, he benefited Operation USA, as they deployed moneys from the Song.  He reportedly was listed in the 2000 edition of the Guinness Book of World Records for “Most Charities Supported by a Pop Star.” The number was 39.

As a humanitarian, he is perhaps best known for “We Are the World,” the 1985 song he wrote with Lionel Richie that raised millions of dollars for famine relief in Africa.  Bobby Vassallo was involved through that process and witnessed first-hand the enormous genius of Michael Jackson, later assisting in deployment of the assets to Africa.

Do you agree Jackson completely reshaped Celebrity Donations by his leadership?  Thoughts?
