Invisible Children

For those of you who don't know, my heart is in Africa. Eventually, it will be my home, but for now, it is only a place I dream of and help from far away. An organization called "Invisible Children" is one of the groups I have found that I love being a part of. 

For those of you who do not know what Invisible Children is, it is an organization that helps children in Africa, specifically Uganda and the Sudan. For years, Joseph Kony and his Lord's Resistance Army have terrorized families, killed parents, and kidnapped young girls and boys to use for prostitution, labor, and soldiers among other things. 3 young men went to Uganda, found out about this horror, and decided to do something about it.

With several events over the recent years, a new one has been planned for this April 25th. It is called "Break the Silence". Here is a video about it: 


Watch it. Do it. Let me know if you are going to do it, and we can meet up!
