Blog Updates and inspiration

Howdy from the Deep South! When we started out on this journey we decided that our team motto would be “Life begins at the end of your comfort zone”. Little did we know that we would actually experience the meaning behind that phrase. We have learned how important it is to not only look beyond our comfort zones, […]

Mother’s Day is right around the corner, so in honor of mothers everywhere and the education they work so hard to provide their children, we have decided that 100% of proceeds from select Mend products between now and May 13 will go toward our Legacy Scholarship Program. An investment in education is a way that we […]

We like to obsess over and discuss an array of different things on our blog – world news, music, literature & politics, to name a few. Today, it’s about health. Health & wellness. The chair of Invisible Children’s Health & Wellness Committee (yes, we have an actual committee) started a blog called Tiffany, Naturally. We […]

This year was my third time on tour as a roadie but the experience was completely unique from my other tours. Traveling the Cal Pac region this year was my first time being on the road without a mentor. Also, the main goal of the tour was to raise awareness as opposed to funds, and […]

Patricia Akello Invisible Children has helped me to become who I am today through my participation in the Legacy Scholarship Program. I have been in the program for three years, during which time I finished college with a degree in computer science. Although I have been involved with IC for awhile now, traveling with the […]

I have been involved with IC since the beginning. When Jason, Laren, and Bobby first came to Uganda in 2003, I was their guide. I helped them get the footage for the Rough Cut and also supported the work that they did between 2003 and 2005, before IC was a non-profit, to support some of […]

Just like you, we lined up our community service and street projects ahead of time. We all met at Emerald Hills Park, which was desperately in need of a trash pick-up crew. We’ve spent the last couple of weeks locking down mural locations, arranging field trips, and getting permission to hang excessive banners from our […]

Meet team CalVegas. We are comprised of energy, great hair, fierce dance moves, and a whole lot of sass. We come equipped with glitter and “that’s what she said” jokes. We live to laugh and love, so open up those arms of yours because here we come. We are beginning our 7th week on the road, and […]

This morning I woke up overly excited for the day. Reason: today was “Take your child to work day”. So I went with my step mom to the Invisible Children headquarters where she works as a writer. The instant you walk in you are immersed into a fun, artistic atmosphere. I was introduced to a […]

Hey there! Kimmie and Dan here. In case you are unfamiliar with who we are, we have been sent out on assignment by a non-profit organization, Invisible Children. Both of us have a history with Invisible Children, and were beyond pumped when the opportunity to take it to another level came our way. We did […]
