About

We believe IC is not just a charity, but a group of people choosing to live differently. This blog highlights what we're up to as an organization, what inspires us, challenges us, and makes us laugh. It's our collective mind written down. We invite you to read, think critically, and speak openly.

INVISIBLE CHILDREN INC.

Invisible Children uses film, creativity and social action to end the use of child soldiers in Joseph Kony's rebel war and restore LRA-affected communities in central Africa to peace and prosperity.

We Won the Webby.

Invisible Children’s Displace Me is the winner of the Webby People’s Voice Award, in the Activism category.

Nearly 500,000 votes were cast in the Webby People¹s Voice Awards and the people have spoken. This is a tremendous honor indicating the highest level of loyalty and commitment from our online community. In its biggest year yet, with nearly 10,000 entries from all 50 US states and over 60 countries around the world, our work represents the best of the Web.

Along with Digitaria, we’ll be honored at the 12th Annual Webby Gala in June, hosted by SNL’s Seth Meyers.

Congratulations to our web director, Javan Van Gronigen, and to all of you who helped make the website, and the event itself, such a success. Thank you.
