Our most anticipated event of the year // LUMINOUS Dance Marathon
If you don’t know the name Suzanna Hendricks, you should. She was one of the power forces behind the Fourth Estate Leadership Summit 2013 – which means you know that any event she’s working on is bound to be a heck-of-a good time. Suzanna worked at Invisible Children up until a few years ago, when she […]
Supporter spotlight // Meet Danielle McGorman
As you may have heard, our supporters are our superheroes. Their enthusiasm and commitment to justice has made our movement what it is, and our life-saving programs simply couldn’t exist without them. This week, we want to show some love to one of our most dedicated supporters, Danielle McGorman. We are so impressed by what […]
Dancing in the Rain // Remembering Annika Lange
Recently, Invisible Children received the difficult news that our beloved friend and supporter Annika Lange passed away unexpectedly. We had the privilege of getting to know Annika at our Fourth Estate Retreat this summer, and it’s safe to say that she was one of the brightest and sweetest 17-year-olds we have ever met. Annika’s good friend […]
Supporter Spotlight // Camela Giraud
Call us crazy, but we’re obsessed with the back-to-school season. For one, it’s an excuse to stock up on all the highlighters and Post-It notes could ever want… let’s throw in some gel pens, too. You get to see all your friends again, and that “first day of school” energy is something you can’t replicate. […]
Supporter Spotlight // Ellen Orr
It’s been a busy summer in our San Diego office. First, our top #zeroLRA fundraisers touched base here before flying out to Uganda to see our programs in action. Then, 35 committed supporters and fundraisers visited our office last weekend for an intimate Fourth Estate Retreat. Ellen Orr is one of the few who made it to both events […]
Supporter Spotlight // Mount Pleasant High School

The community from Mount Pleasant High School (MPHS) has been a part of the Invisible Children movement for years, and Emily Spiegel, president of their Invisible Children […]
Supporter Spotlight // A Visit from Franklin College
Take a Legacy Scholarship Program graduate, a liberal arts university in the United States and a nonprofit organization working to bring an end to LRA atrocities in East and central Africa. Invisible Children meets Franklin College. We could not be prouder of our connection with the college – from Roadie visits and screenings on their campus, […]
Supporter Spotlight // Optimal Performance Training
I don’t spend a lot of my time, or for that matter any of my time, perusing inspirational-gym-videos on the Internet. However, if they all turned out to be as motivating and beautiful as Optimal Performance Training‘s newest video, I would definitely need to rethink my video watching schedule. (read as: less pug videos) Enter Joey Bellus […]
Supporter spotlight // Emily Ip
Meet Emily Ip. If a ray of sunshine somehow magically became a person, we’re convinced it would be Emily Ip. She is a mix of enthusiastic joy and endless creativity. If the world was full of Emily’s, the world would be a sunnier place. Emily is 18 years old and hails from the potato capital […]
Supporter Spotlight // Meredith Hoffman
Meet future world leader Meredith Hoffman. Though, if you’ve fundraised for our most recent #zeroLRA campaign, went to the Fourth Estate Leadership Summit 2013 or have ever been to Dallas, you probably already know her. Meredith is quite a popular and loved name around the Invisible Children office. Is it because she has raised over […]
