We’ve been keeping tabs on our Warped Tour Roadies, Nathan and Catherine, as they travel across the country and spread the word about Invisible Children. They’ve met some incredible bands and Invisible Children supporters, and we love hearing their stories. This week, Catherine reflects on some of the random acts of kindness she’s seen on tour. And from what we can […]

Nathan Garcia is pretty awesome. He’s worked with Invisible Children for almost a year and now he’s traveling around the country on Warped Tour spreading the word about Invisible Children with his equally awesome teammate, Catherine. Oh, and we hear he’s pretty decent at handstands, too. He gave us a look at a day in his life, […]

For the last few months, our Roadie teams have been driving all over the United States, sharing information about Invisible Children and gathering support for #zeroLRA. The meaningful conversation and connections fostered by our tours are key to fueling involvement in our efforts and support for our programs. But, since their words alone cannot bring […]

This season, we are celebrating everything — every escape, every name, every life — and we are asking our supporters to do the same as we countdown to #zeroLRA. The Marciano family took celebrations to a whole new level when, after hosting our California Roadies at their home, they found out Proscovia, a Roadie from Uganda, […]

With the help of her friends and family, Lindsey Armstrong started her very own 501 (c)(3) nonprofit in 2013 and called it The Family Kitchen. This Tennessee native, while both humble and generous, is only 17 years old. Our Southeast Roadie team had the opportunity to meet with Lindsey while they held a screening at […]
