Celebrating Michael. . . Celebrating the Children. . .

Welcome to the annual Michael Fassbender Online Birthday Charity Celebration! Together we will raise money for Barretstown… for the children and their families!

Please help us celebrate the April 2, 2012 birthday of this truly gifted and award winning actor, Michael Fassbender, by donating to Barretstown in Michael’s honor.

Your generous donations will allow the courageous and beautiful children the opportunity to experience a fun, happy and amazing time at the magical Barretstown! Barretstown is a fairytale castle in the beautiful foothills of Ireland’s Wicklow Mountains and is part of the Hole in the Wall Camps founded by the legendary Paul Newman.

GBP and US Dollar donation options are available to you. You will also find the three donation buttons located on the sidebar to the left below Michael’s film projects.

Our goal is to raise funds February 2, 2012 through March 30, 2012. We hope you will join us in achieving outstanding success! Special prize drawing information is found on each donation site page. You may win an item autographed by Michael Fassbender!

We also invite everyone to post your Birthday Wishes to Michael in the comment section of the MFO site, with this birthday post. The messages will be collected and sent on to Michael. Please remember to be respectful.

Thank you,
The MFO Crew

Awards, Nominations, Gala and Special Screenings

Michael has been receiving well deserved accolades along with numerous nominations and awards, we’re sure there is many more to come. Last year was extraordinary and 2012 is shaping up to be quite an amazing year as well for Michael. We benefit by getting to see his brilliant work in cinema!

When the Oscar nominations were recently announced, there was a global uproar by fan and film industry folks alike. The feeling is that Michael and Steve McQueen’s film Shame, along with a few other Oscar worthy performances and films were snubbed. There has been much discussion as to the reasons why the Academy chose to not present such an outstanding performance and film with a nomination. In spite of this decision, we immediately proclaimed that Michael is OUR BEST ACTOR, he is OUR SHINING STAR and many have echoed that sentiment as well. We have no doubt that an Oscar nomination and win is in this remarkable actors future.

We look forward now to the upcoming BAFTA, IFTA and Genie Awards!

Meanwhile Michael has been busy with award ceremonies, magazine cover photo shoots & interviews, attending special screenings and Q&A’s for Shame and a Gala screening of A Dangerous Method in London. Michael even made his first appearances on the Late Show with David Letterman and on the Charlie Rose Show. [access show links for video viewing]

Special Screening of Shame and Q&A with Michael Fassbender held at the Hackney Picturehouse.
