Several actors who are currently or have been on The Walking Dead will be appearing in Orlando later this year in an effort to raise money for victims of the Pulse Nightclub tragedy and their families. The event, run by the same folks who run The Walking Dead themed Walker Stalker Con, will take place on September 17 at the Orange County Convention Center with 100% of the profits being donated to the One Orlando Fund.

Set to attend the charity event are Lauren Cohan, Michael Cudlitz, Josh McDermitt, Alanna Masterson, Chandler Riggs, Ross Marquand, Seth Gilliam, Sonequa Martin-Green, Christian Serratos, Emily Kinney, Lawrence Gilliard Jr., and executive producer Greg Nicotero. Stars from other shows, such as Arrow, include Oliver Queen actor Stephen Amell and John Diggle actor David Ramsey.

Fan Fest and Walker Stalker founder James Frazier, who is an Orlando native, hopes to raise $500,000 with the event. "I grew up in Orlando, graduated from high school there, got married there, and had four of my children there," said Frazier. "Now, we're inviting our community of fans to come help us raise as much money as we can for the families that were impacted."

More information regarding the event can be found at Fan Fest's website. In the mean time, you can donate to the One Orlando fund raiser and learn more about it by clicking here.

The Walking Dead will return for its seventh season in October.
