The Invisible Children Bracelet Campaign

Posted on July 16th, 2009 by admin

Finally, a bracelet that comes full circle.

This is a micro-economic program creating jobs for men and women in an otherwise unemployable war area, the Bracelet Campaign allows Ugandans living in displacement camps to hand make bracelets and generate a much-needed income. Eight different colored bracelets are being made, and each is accompanied by a short film told by an invisible child. Each of these extraordinary stories highlights one of the many ways Northern Ugandans have been affected by this unrelenting war.

    i have been involved in invisible children for 3yrs now! I have the shirts and all the bracelets that are available. My school started the Invisible Children Club my junior year by one of my best friends. I was made one of the officers. Then my senior year I was made vice president but the pres. was hardly there bc he was always busy. So I basically ran it. I am now going into my second year of college and I still help out. I absolutely love this!!!!

    I have all the bracelets, and Emmy’s story is by far my favorite. I can’t watch any of the videos with out crying. Though I’m not African-American, the majority of my family is from Kenya. I promised myself I would go to Africa as soon as possible, with no hesitations.
    It’s horrible to think that people their are dying just from the lack of clean water, while we bathe in gallons of it every day.
