One Love Entertainment presents a Walking Dead Meet and Greet and day of fun for Atlanta area families to benefit 5-year-old Paxton who suffers from a lifelong neurological illness.

Pax suffers from Chiari Malformation, bent brainstem, seizure disorder, autism, and ADD. He will need medical attention and surgeries throughout his lifetime, facing pain and difficulty walking. A GoFundMe page Hope for Paxton has more of Pax’s story and details on how you can help with medical expenses.

If you live in the Atlanta area, there is a Walking Dead benefit set for August 7, from 1-5:30 pm, at Terminal West at 887 West Marietta Street. The benefit includes a DJ, inflatables, rock climbing wall, food trucks, face painting, and raffles.

One of the main attractions of the event is a meet and greet with some of the former cast members of The Walking Dead.

A special treat is the confirmed appearance of Seth Gilliam, who plays Father Gabriel. There will be many featured walkers on hand as well, plus cosplayers and look-alikes.

There is no charge to attend, however, donations are greatly appreciated to benefit Pax’s care. Benefit 4 Pax can be found on Facebook. The Marietta Daily Journal has more information about the family as well.

"“So many people have volunteered their time and services; it’s amazing, and it’s also overwhelming,”"

If you’re in the Atlanta area this Sunday, consider meeting some Walking Dead fans and family, having some fun, and helping out a little boy at the same time. If you’re not in Atlanta, but this story has moved you, consider donating through the Go Fund Me link.
