invisible children
how it started:
In the spring of 2003, three young filmmakers traveled to Africa in search of a story. What started out as a filmmaking adventure transformed into much more when these boys from Southern California discovered a tragedy that disgusted and inspired them-a tragedy where children are both the weapons and the victims.
After returning to the States, they created the documentary "Invisible Children: Rough Cut," a film that exposes the tragic realities of nothern Uganda's night commuters and child soldiers. The film originally shown too friends and family, but has now been seen by millions of people. The overwhelming response has been, "How can I help?" To answer this question, the non-profit Invisible Children Inc. was created, giving compasssionate individuals an effective way o respond to the situation.
How you can help:
Have a screening: show the documentary to friends and family, or host a screening on our national tour.
* Buy a bracelet: IC's bracelet campaign is the easiest way to start making a difference. Not only do they provide jobs for people in Uganda but also 0put children through school.
* Join Schools for Schools: Connect your school to a war-affected school in northern Uganda and directly rebuild their education system.
* Get creative: Use your time, talent and money to help support peace in Uganda.
Invisible Children is a social, palithal, and global movement.
