Blog Updates and inspiration

It’s pretty wild to believe that our summer interns, Ben and Sarah, have been here for a month already. It hasn’t taken nearly that long for us to fall in love with them, which is why we’re excited for you get to know them too! We sat down with these two gems for an inside scoop into […]

It was pretty warm out that afternoon, but that’s not why my palms were sweating. Somehow, I had landed an internship with Invisible Children, a nonprofit I’d dreamed about being a part of for years, and was about to move in with 15 complete strangers-turned-fellow-interns in the Invisible Children Intern House. I’ve always identified myself […]

We just opened up applications for our spring internships, and we’re getting excited to meet some new faces for next season. To give you an exclusive look at life inside the walls of Invisible Children, we want you to hear from Casey and Ashima, two of our fabulous engagement interns. Our engagement team embodies the “work hard, play hard” […]

Our communications department just got a new addition. We couldn’t be more excited to introduce you to our newest communication intern. Apparently she used to go by “Queen Arthur” in fifth grade – but now she says we can just call her Liz.  She’s also an up-and-coming sociologist who loves the rain and names her pets after Star Wars characters. You’ll be seeing more of […]

Meet Arley. Arley’s cool factor is through the roof. Is it that he’s our one and only Animation Intern, now beginning his second season of interning with Invisible Children? Is it that he’s a boss at drums and has played in two bands? Or perhaps the fact that he was almost named after a Harley […]

Meet Heloisa and Michelle. They are two fall semester interns on the Engagement Team and responsible for making sure our supporters are well taken care of. Heloisa was born and raised in Brazil, but she knew after attending the first Fourth Estate Summit in 2011 that her love of IC was only just beginning. Now […]

The following was written by Hillie Brumfield, an intern on our Engagement Team. Some might say that taking time off from school, moving to an unfamiliar city, living in a house with strangers, and starting an internship you’ve never tried before classifies you as “fearless.” But for me, I became an Invisible Children intern because […]

Cassidy Myers spent two years with Invisible Children as a Roadie, then a Team Leader, and then as a member of our Austin Street Team during KONY 2012. Cassidy left Invisible Children this past December and is now living out her lifelong dream of working at Nike Headquarters in Portland, Oregon. The following is an […]

Meet Jesse. He’s a member of our Engagement Team and he rarely forgoes the opportunity to suit up – more often than not, he’s best-dressed in the office. Credit that to his mom and the online tie borrowing club he’s a member of. But enough about the suit and tie. Let’s get down to the business […]

One of our interns recently ended her stint at Invisible Children and returned home to resume her life. She has a blog and wrote a post entitled “Invisible Children Ruined My Life” which reflects on her time with us and what she learned about herself. I laughed so hard, I cried. And if I cry, […]
