Mission
Motivated by the unseen war in Northern Uganda, Invisible Children was created by three young filmmakers with a singular mission: to use the power of stories to change lives around the world. We are dedicated to providing financial resources to invisible children by documenting their true, untold stories in a creative and relevant way, resulting in positive change. Our goals can be simplified in three major objectives: movie, movement, and mission. The movie is a documentary that exposes the effects of a 20-year-long war on the children of Northern Uganda. The movement is the awareness, mobilization and fundraising effort taking place around the world by people who are inspired to act. The mission is the ultimate goal of Invisible Children. It is the resources, skills, and funds that hit the ground in Uganda that will provide health, safety and education for the children of Northern Uganda.
