The Peter Wingfield Fan Club

Project Edan logo

The purpose of the Peter Wingfield Fan Club has always been to foster friendship through a common interest in the career and acting projects of Peter Wingfield (Highlander: Endgame, Catwoman, etc.). The club also spearheads fundraisers to support the Wingfield family's selected charity, the U.S. Fund for UNICEF.

Project Edan Supports UNICEF's HIV/AIDS Programs

With the birth of Peter and Carolyn's son, Edan, the club's fundraising initiative was named Project Edan. Funds raised for Project Edan are donated to the U.S. Fund for UNICEF in support of UNICEF's global programs for orphans and children made vulnerable by HIV/AIDS. In supporting the I Believe in Zero campaign, the Peter Wingfield Fan Club continues to advocate passionately for the U.S. Fund for UNICEF's effort to bring an end to the preventable deaths of children around the world. Ongoing individual contributions, auctions and funds raised at club conventions have totaled over $107,500 since 2003.

UNICEF is responding to the global HIV/AIDS crisis by providing care for orphans and children made vulnerable by HIV/AIDS, education to prevent HIV infection among young people and prevention of parent-to-child transmission of HIV.

Peter Wingfield fans and U.S. Fund for UNICEF donors can support these efforts by wearing the Project Edan awareness wristband—a light blue neoprene band with the words "Project Edan" debossed on one side and "Hope Thrives!" on the other.

To order the wristbands, and for further information about Project Edan and the fan club, please visit www.projectedan.org.

"The idea that the more we raise, the more kids might make it through the night, through another day, through school, through a full and possibility-filled life humbles and excites me. The Wingfield family and the PWFC have confidence that UNICEF has the skill, experience and talent to achieve their shared goals."
