Invisible Children

Campus Activities Board is sponsoring an event called Invisible Children, which will be held in Mass Media Technology Hall's Auditorium. The goal of Invisible Children is to create awareness regarding the plight of the people of Northern Uganda, caught in the midst of a civil war between the government and Joseph Kony's Lord's Resistance Army, a rebel group that makes extensive use of kidnapping and child soldiers. Statistics show that 50,000 Ugandan children are abducted each year to become child soldiers. Invisible Children Inc. was started after the founders had created a documentary film on the subject, also called Invisible Children. The organization was started in an attempt to give people a way to easily help with the situation in Northern Uganda, after viewing the film.
