In 2007, GQ commemorated their 50th anniversary by establishing The Gentleman's Fund to encourage individuals to become agents of change by contributing to charities in the areas of opportunity, the environment, mentorship, education, and health. In 2008, The Gentleman's Fund identified celebrity ambassadors to help bring attention to these issues including Mark Wahlberg, Usher, Forest Whitaker, Timbaland, and Steve Nash. They have also organized the Better Men Better World Search to identify change agents working on these issues in their communities. With scores of men's fashion companies involved, ads in magazines, and video clips of the ambassadors making their way around the internet, The Gentleman's Fund will not only change minds it will change the world.
