That’s right, Gerard Butler Dot Net is celebrating its 9 year anniversary! We can’t believe it’s been 9 years since three friends decided to create a place for people to learn about a little-known actor who played Dracula and Attila. How time flies and how things change!!! We couldn’t be happier to still be here and still supporting a man we have come to call “friend” through all his success and hard work.
Of course, we wouldn’t be here without the countless hours of help from volunteers who help manage our gallery, news and newsletter. We wouldn’t be able to do what we do without the countless contributions from fans across the globe who send in their pictures and news finds. We couldn’t do what we do without the continued support of Gerry, Alan Siegel (thanks guys!!) and the film professionals who send us project news and updates!!
In those nine years, we have raised over $300,000 for a variety of charities. Our Global Birthday Celebration events in October brought in $12,000 for a variety of charities in the US, Scotland and Japan.
We are in the final week of our campaign in support of Kids Kicking Cancer and to date, over $56,590 has been raised from 1371 donation receipts submitted!! Our most successful campaign to date!
It’s not too late to send in your donation receipts (we DO NOT collect the actual donations so please DO NOT send us your credit card number – DONATE HERE FIRST – then fill out our form HERE with proof of your donation)!
If you are mailing a check, it must be RECEIVED before February 14 (last pickup is February 13), so send it via express mail or other overnight delivery services. Click here for all the details…
The final two recipients will be chosen on February 13 and the lucky fan to Enjoy a Date with Gerry will be chosen on February 14 (the date DOES NOT occur on February 14 – that will be scheduled at a later date to accommodate everyone’s schedule).
So thank you to every one of you who visits the site daily, weekly or just every once in a while. Thanks to all of our volunteers. We are looking forward to great things to come as we start our tenth year in support of a great guy for great fans!!!
