Brittany Murphy Foundation Returns Donations

The Brittany Murphy Foundation has re-opened its Web site after TMZ revealed that the foundation run by Brittany Murphy’s husband, Simon Monjack and mother, Sharon Murphy, hadn’t filed the necessary documents to qualify as a charity or nonprofit group. The foundation has promised to give back all the donations people made while it has its “non-profit status approved.” The site is no longer taking donations and now holds itself out as a private foundation, which awaits 501(c)3 non-profit status.
