Who are we?

We are the Adelaide Browncoats - a group of Joss Whedon fans who got together to misbehave, raise money for charity and indulge in our love of the TV show Firefly, the movie Serenity and all things Whedon-related. We’re part of a larger, worldwide movement that holds annual Can’t Stop the Serenity events, where all proceeds go to charity.

Which charities are we supporting in 2017?

This year we are not taking part in the global Can't Stop the Serenity event so we can donate 75% of the proceeds to a local charity. We've once again chosen to support Essentials 4 Women SA. Essentials 4 Women SA aims to provide all women with the basic, but costly, items for feminine hygiene including sanitary products and underwear. Limited access to sanitary products means these women are often forced to choose between buying sanitary products or other essential items like food for their children. They help women (and men) who are homeless, at risk of becoming homeless or victims of domestic violence. Basically anyone who has little or no income.

25% of the proceeds will go towards Equality Now. This amazing organisation (of which Joss is a long-time active supporter) uses the law to change the world. They are dedicated to creating a more just world where women and girls have the same rights as men and boys. Their international network of lawyers, activists and supporters hold governments responsible for ending female genital mutilation, legal inequality, sexual trafficking and sexual violence.
