Produced by the Fuck Death Foundation as part of their incisive venture to “carpet bomb death” this name badge touts the Foundation’s basic mission, simply stated as “Forever”.

As an alternative to the often abstract impact of art on the world, the Fuck Death Foundation is structured to make a quantifiable contribution to society. As their mission statement outlines, “The Fuck Death Foundation is an organization dedicated to the elimination of death through the generation and distribution of funds to strategically selected causes and initiatives worldwide.” The organization aims to efficiently and effectively target the 5 illnesses responsible for 70% of the world’s mortalities; parasitic and infectious disease, cardiovascular disease, cancer and AIDS through the distribution of funds, while a Lightning Action Relief Fund will respond to global crisis situations. Over time, resources will be directed toward “life extension sciences”.

All proceeds from sales benefit the Foundation. Unlimited edition.
