May 7, 2007 by StevieB
As most Joss Whedon fans are aware, the Can’t Stop The Serenity worldwide charity screening of “Serenity” to benefit “Equality Now” is getting ever closer (June 16-24), and they now have an updated press release posted over on eMediaWire.
Don’t forget to check out the Can’t Stop The Serenity website to find your nearest screening and support this event, last year over $65,000 was raised and the goal this year is to provide over $100,000 in donations for Joss Whedon’s favourite charity.
Can’t Stop The Serenity [CSTS was conceived as a tribute to writer-director Joss Whedon on his birthday, June 23, by holding screenings of his 2005 film ‘Serenity’ wherever supporters were able to organize events. Proceeds from the events are donated to Equality Now, a charitable organization that Whedon’s mother, Lee Stearns, helped launch. In 2006, there were events in 47 cities worldwide, raising over $65,000 for Equality Now.
Fans of ‘Serenity,’ and its television predecessor “Firefly,” are fervent in their support of Whedon’s works. That fervor helps drive the CSTS events forward. |
