30 Days Left to be a Force For Change

The entire Star Wars fanbase fangirl flailed with the release of the J.J. Abrams video from the set of Episode VII. There are now 30 days left to contribute to Star Wars: Force For Change and win a chance for you and a friend to be J.J. Abrams’ VIP guests on the set. Contributions start at $10 and increase from there. Proceeds benefit UNICEF’s Innovation Labs and Programs.

Star Wars™ continues to inspire generations of dreamers and doers to use their creativity to do great things.  Between what is now and what can be lies innovation – the triumph of human ingenuity combined with advances in science and technology. Star Wars and Lucasfilm were built on a belief in this tenet, by combining creativity with innovation you can make the impossible now possible. As Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi once said “The Force is an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds the galaxy together”.  Dedicated to finding creative solutions to some of the world’s biggest problems, Star Wars: Force for Change captures the power of innovation to make a positive impact in our global community. Join us and together we can harness the power of the Force to make a difference around the world.
