In the wake of Haiti's recent tragedies, this feels all the more sketchy.

Simon Monjack is looking to honor his late wife, Brittany Murphy, by launching a foundation dedicated to arts education for children. Simon claims he started the foundation with $1 million of his own money.

The first (and maybe last?) event will take place this Thursday at the Saban Theatre, and a source tells Us that Monjack wants $1000 donations from individuals and $10,000 ones from corporations to attend...

Simon has yet to comment, but I think we can all agree this sounds a little tacky.

Can his intentions be genuine?
