Invisible Children is an international nonprofit organization which lobbies and raises awareness about the situation in Northern Uganda. For the past 24 years, a man named Joseph Kony has been kidnapping over 30,000 children and making them fight in his civil war. Invisible Children works on the ground with these children, rebuilding schools and creating microfinance programs to rebuild Uganda from the bottom up.
Schools 4 Schools is a program created by Invisible Children to partner high schools and colleges in the US with schools being rebuilt in Uganda. The UCSD chapter of Schools 4 Schools raises money for Sacred Heart Secondary School, an all-girls school in Gulu, Uganda, providing them with essential books, water, housing, and protection.
