“X-Files” Team Members Reunite for “Believe Again” Event

Chris Carter, Gillian Anderson, Mitch Pileggi, Frank Spotnitz and Rob Bowman reunite on November 14 at the Beverly Wilshire hotel to talk all things “X-Files” for charity.

(PRWEB) November 3, 2009 -- "The X-Files" creator Chris Carter, actress Gillian Anderson (Dana Scully), actor Mitch Pileggi (Walter Skinner), executive producer/writer Frank Spotnitz and executive producer/director Rob Bowman (currently executive producer and director on ABC’s hit "Castle") reunite at the Beverly Wilshire hotel on November 14th, 2009 at 2:00pm to talk all things “X-Files” and answer burning questions from fans (eg all those rumors about X-Files 3 and the 2012 mythology). This is a rare opportunity for fans and filmmakers alike to get behind-the-scenes scoops on the process of making this iconic television series, ask questions about the panelists’ new projects and raise money for some very worthy causes.

"The X-Files", created by Chris Carter starring David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, aired from 1993 to 2002 and spawned two feature films and a spin-off to date. Considered one of the most successful shows in Fox’s history, the award-winning show’s characters, theme song and slogans have a permanent place in pop culture’s history. Whether you were a fan of the mythology episodes or the monsters of the week, there is no denying that "The X-Files" made audiences ponder, gasp, laugh and hide their eyes-occasionally all at the same time.

Tickets for the Q&A event are now available at http://www.ibginc.org/tickets. Proceeds from this amazing event will be donated in support of the participants’ chosen charities, including The Rape Treatment Center at Santa Monica-UCLA Medical Center, Off the Street Kids, Fezeka and Children of the Night.

The event will be hosted by IBG Inc. In 2008, IBG established an official non-profit campaign focusing on utilizing the power of philanthropy through the arts to benefit a wide range of charities worldwide. IBG acts as a "fundraiser facilitator" for underfunded and start-up charities that would otherwise struggle with the logistics and costs associated with event fundraising.

All programs are funded with the support of private donations.

The organization seeks to respond to the needs of young people who are forced to leave care in South Africa at the age of 18 when state funding ceases. Many of these young people return to the streets because they have neither the skills to support themselves nor a home to return to. OTSK is working on a pilot a program that will provide support for these young people in order to prevent them returning to the streets, and enable them to provide for themselves in the long term.

• Fezeka: The Fezeka Scholarship Fund has been created with a view to assisting Fezeka’s children through university and higher education helping them to pursue their dreams. Donations will be split 70% to the Fezeka Scholarship Fund and 30% to supporting the Fezeka Outreach ensuring that the film is screened in communities far and wide so that more individuals will be inspired to support and give to the Fezeka Scholarship fund, which will help to make this a sustainable and ongoing fund for many years to come.
