The Issue

Brittany Murphy was more than just a talented actress — she was a vibrant, kind-hearted soul whose warmth, charisma, and undeniable talent left a lasting impression on audiences around the world. From her breakout role in Clueless to powerful performances in films like 8 Mile, Girl, Interrupted, and Uptown Girls, Brittany brought depth, authenticity, and light to every character she portrayed. Her voice, her energy, and her compassion made her not only a beloved entertainer, but also a genuinely beautiful human being.

Beyond the screen, Brittany was known for her generosity, humility, and dedication to others. She supported numerous charitable causes throughout her life and consistently used her platform to spread positivity and kindness. Her untimely passing in 2009 was a profound loss — not just for Hollywood, but for fans across the globe who connected with her spirit and sincerity.

In the years following her death, the Brittany Murphy Foundation was established to continue her legacy of compassion and giving. However, over time, public visibility of initiatives connected to her name has faded. For someone who gave so much joy and inspiration, this absence feels deeply undeserved.

That is why we are calling for the return of the Brittany Murphy Foundation in a visible, active capacity — or, alternatively, for Hollywood to establish an annual “Brittany Murphy Charity Award” in her honor. This award would recognize individuals in the entertainment industry who embody Brittany’s values: kindness, generosity, authenticity, and a commitment to helping others.

An annual award in her name would not only preserve Brittany Murphy’s legacy, but also inspire future generations of artists and public figures to lead with compassion. It would ensure that her light continues to shine — not just through her films, but through meaningful, ongoing acts of goodwill.

Brittany Murphy deserves to be remembered not only for her talent, but for her heart. By supporting this petition, you are helping to honor her life, celebrate her legacy, and bring her spirit of kindness back into the spotlight where it belongs.

So that's why I propose to call on Hollywood Studios to back an annual Brittany Murphy Charity award called the Brittany Murphy Award or show enough demand that the estate of Brittany Murphy revives the foundation/charity of Brittany Murphy. It would be great if someone with money were to work with Hayley Taylor Block on reviving the foundation.
