Invisible Children, Inc. is a non-profit organization whose goal is to create awareness regarding the plight of the people of Northern Uganda. Many innocent children are caught in the midst of a civil war between the government and Joseph Kony's Lord's Resistance Army, a rebel group that makes extensive use of kidnapping children and using them as soldiers.
Invisible Children was started after the founders (Jason Russell, Bobby Bailey and Lauren Poole) created a short documentary film on the subject, also called Invisible Children. Invisible Children, Inc. is also responsible for raising significant sums of money, which go toward a number of programs they have developed in Acholiland. These programs mainly focus on education of war-affected youth in Northern Uganda. For more information, see http://www.invisiblechildren.com
Institute for Field Research Expeditions (IFRE) is a non-profit, volunteer organization committed to carrying out authentic field research programs on ecology, environment, wildlife, archeology and other areas affecting global communities. The secondary objective of IFRE is to offer affordable and high quality volunteer abroad and internship abroad programs. In collaboration
with local organizations, IFRE presently offers volunteer abroad programs in Nepal, India, Sri Lanka, China, Thailand, Peru, Costa Rica, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa and Tanzania. Their volunteer abroad programs are focused on working in orphanages, teaching English, health projects and conservation efforts. For more info see: http://www.ifrevolunteers.org
Meleesa The Salon hair stylist Cerissa Cain will be embarking on a two-week expedition with IRFE, volunteering at an orphanage in Kampala, Uganda. There she will provide assistance to the children at the orphanage, including teaching English. Cerissa is an avid volunteer when she is not working in the salon.
