The Elvis Presley Charitable Foundation
The Elvis Presley Estate has chosen the Elvis Presley Charitable Foundation (EPCF) to receive 5% of all proceeds derived from the sale Elvis Presley Merchandise on Zionrootswear.com. EPCF provides homeless families up to one year of rent-free housing, child day care, career and financial counseling, family management guidance and other tools to help them break the cycle of poverty and regain self-esteem and independence.
The Elvis Presley Charitable Foundation (EPCF) was formed by Graceland/Elvis Presley Enterprises, Inc. in 1984 to continue and honor Elvis' own tradition of generosity and community service. The EPCF is overseen by Lisa Marie Presley, chairperson, and the management team of Graceland/Elvis Presley Enterprises, Inc. Lisa and the staff operate the foundation in addition to their regular responsibilities and the company underwrites all the EPCF’s administrative expenses. The Elvis Presley Charitable Foundation receives a portion of the overall business income of Graceland/Elvis Presley Enterprises, with additional funding from the company’s royalties on specially licensed products and from special benefit events the company stages. A meaningful amount of the EPCF’s funding also comes from donations made by Elvis fan clubs and individual Elvis fans and admirers from around the world.
