Invisible Children Film Showing: Thursday, September 15th

CCV has arranged for the organization INVISIBLE CHILDREN to visit CCV on Thursday, September 15th, from 6:15- 9:00. They will be showing two short films, provide a speaker from Uganda and staff who will facilitate a discussion with our students.

A bit about INVISIBLE CHILDREN: At its start in 2003, the mission of Invisible Children was simply to document the story of the kids in northern Uganda and share it to as many people as possible through the distribution of the Invisible Children: Rough Cut. Through massive and immediate grassroots support, the story of Invisible Children rapidly spread throughout the U.S. It has inspired millions of people to get involved in international issues, in using their civic voice in Washington, and specifically speaks to a younger generation who are looking for their significance.

There will be opportunities to purchase merchandise crafted by Ugandans to help support the micro-economic businesses INVISIBLE CHILDREN has helped launch. The event is free; donations to support the work of INVISIBLE CHILDREN are welcome.

"Invisible Children is a social, political, and global movement using the transformative power of story to change lives. By inspiring youth culture to value creativity, idealism, and sacrifice, the movement fuels the most effective, adaptable, and innovative programs in the world."
