Walking Dead fan favorite Danai Gurira (Michonne) is a badass on AND off screen. When she’s not slicing walker’s heads off, she serves as President of the Almasi Arts Alliance located in Zimbabwe. Almasi, which Gurira co-founded in 2011, helps empower the voices of African artists through collaborating with American artists.
Their site states, “Our goal is to see that no African artistic voice is left silent. That no African story is left untold. And that we in the U.S. gain a better understanding of the African through their subjective storytelling, which in turn nurtures global citizenship.” Gurira, 37, was born in the U.S. but raised in Zimbabwe.
To help raise funds for her mission Gurira is giving Walking Dead fans the chance to win a HUGE giveaway that includes tickets to the Season 6 PREMIERE in New York AND a trip to Atlanta to have lunch with Gurira herself. Additionally the winner will get to take a weapons training course and be made up as a walker. All YOU have to do is donate $10 to her cause and you might be sitting across from Michonne in an Atlanta near you.
“If you’re a fan of the show, this is the prize for you,” Gurira said.
To learn more about this amazing opportunity visit the CrowdRise Page here. The contest ends on September 24th so make sure to enter soon.

Great work Danai! It’s absolutely wonderful that you are helping support such a great cause. I wish you all the best and I’ll definitely be donating! (I need that prize! :P)
No! Mine! 😛 Good luck, Gov!
And if you DO win (I hope you do!), dress up as The Governor! See what her reaction would be!
That can be arranged >:)
Haha. Awesome. I just imagine her sitting at a table, and you’re just a few feet behind her and you just announce, “Kill Them All” and you just hand her the katana. I KNOW they have replicas of that thing. How much are they?
I bought a replica of her Katana for $88 at a comic convention. Michonne and the Governor team-up!
I bet that, when I win (Note: when, not if) the prize won’t include airfare from the UK…
Ooh! Rockin, love it when people do some.good if they can, plus a killer prise so no going wrong
