About Us

 On March 8, 1988 James "Al" Hendrix, father and sole heir to the estate of his late son Jimi Hendrix, created the "Commission" naming and identifying the "James (Jimi) Marshall Hendrix Foundation" as his non-profit charitable organization. In his Commission, he provided the Foundation with the legal basis and protection to insure its perpetual rights to accomplish its purpose.

 The Foundation is a Federally Registered 501(c)(3), LLC. Under the stated purposes in "Al" Hendrix' Commission, all legitimate charitable use of "Jimi Hendrix" is conducted under the authority of the James (Jimi) Marshall Hendrix Foundation for the benefit of its operation, mission and programs, as supervised and granted by the Board of Directors, in accordance with its bylaws.
