The Project is comprised of two parts: The Grand Gesture and The Personal Post.
The Grand Gesture
In May 2013, during the week of The Office series finale (Date TBD), we will be publishing an advertisement in The Hollywood Reporter to thank cast and crew of NBC’s The Office for their nine years of dedication to this phenomenal television series.
The “Thank You” will be on behalf of The Office fans from around the world.
The sites listed above have joined together for this project, and are looking for the support of fans everywhere to make it happen. We are aiming to raise $4590 to place a full page ad in the publication. The Hollywood Reporter has been gracious enough to give us a significant discount, with the actual ad space being worth much more than this.
If we are not able to raise the appropriate funds, or should we raise any excess funds, the collected or exceeded amount will be donated to the Make A Wish Foundation, a charity that The Office cast has supported for several years. Thank you to Jenna Fischer for providing us with this charity suggestion.
As a bonus, Simply Jenna Fischer will be hosting monthly The Office themed giveaways. Anyone who donates to “The Office Thank You Project” within a calendar month will be automatically entered into a drawing for a prize pack. There are 7 prize packs available, one for each month leading up to the April 30th deadline. If you donate once a month from October to April, you will be eligible for each and every giveaway!
The money will be collected by Simply Jenna Fischer, through PayPal Business. Every donor will receive a receipt from PayPal upon payment. A portion of the funds donated will be kept by PayPal for use of their service. The remaining funds will then go directly to The Hollywood Reporter and Make A Wish Foundation.
The Personal Post
For nine seasons NBC’s hit comedy series The Office has imprinted itself on our hearts, minds, and daily lives. How has this show influenced your life or the world around you?
How many of you exclaimed “That’s what she said!” today?
How many of you didn’t select the green sweater yesterday for fear you’d look a bit too whorish?
How many of you have met a friend or two online through this fantastic fandom?
If The Office has impacted your life in any way, shape, or form, we would love to invite you to join in on The Office Thank You Project! The Personal Post is your chance to say “Thank You” to The Office in your own way. Submit a story or anecdote, quote, graphic, photograph, video, audio, anything that symbolizes your thanks to this wonderful show!
Give a simple explanation of what you are sharing, and try to start it with something like:
“Thank You, The Office, for…”
We’ve even done up a Submission Example page for anyone who isn’t quite sure where to start!
You can send in your “Thank You” submissions through our simple Submission Form, or Submit via Email.
We are so thrilled to be a part of this project, and cannot wait to see how it all unfolds!
Though The Office Thank You Project officially doesn’t officially start up until this Monday, October 1st, we’ve decided to put the information now. Any donations received this weekend will go towards the October prize draw.
