Big Light

Preparations for the Third Annual “All Things” Marathon events are underway.  Once again, throughout the month of April (and in some cases March), fans of Gillian Anderson will celebrate her work on television and in films during this international, month-long fundraiser to benefit the charity of her choosing, Off The Street Kids (http://otsk.org/home/). Fans will gather in cities, towns, and remotely via the Internet for a viewing party and other fundraising activities.

 

All fans will have the opportunity to contribute photos to the event scrapbook that will be sent on to Gillian following the last event.  As in years past, the team that collectively raises the most funds for OTSK will receive a little something special. This will include IBG merchandise, recognition in the scrapbook and a personal surprise from Gillian Anderson!!

 

Events are already scheduled in:
• Brisbane (19/20 March)
• Melbourne (19/20 March)
• Munich (02 April)
• Cologne (16/17 April)

 

Don't see one nearby and would like to host? Read the faq at http://www.ibginc.org/allthings, then email us to sign up at allthings@ibginc.org. See an event being organized in your area? Contact the event host for more information (details at http://www.ibginc.org/allthings).

 

We are thrilled to announce that this year Legendary Women Inc. is lending their support to these efforts.  Legendary Women Inc. profiles influential female characters in entertainment whilst rallying fans to fundraise in their honor, and we welcome the chance to collaborate with them to make this year’s marathon events the most successful yet!!

Thanks all!

Special note from Carmen, the host of the Munich event has a special message:

The donation for OTSK (10€ +donations) can be transfered to my account afterwards.

Us MuniX-Philes will meet around 4 pm German Time and start around 4.30 pm or 5 pm. (my Skype nick: Bienchen2000xf)
