Week 3 EOC: Making Money for Good

Invisible Children has been on my radar for years. When I first heard about them, they were helping to end the war in Uganda and rescue child soldiers who had been forced into service. In order to help, they were selling handmade bracelets as well as telling the stories of those who had been rescued that inspired the bracelets. Now that I go back and revisit the cause, the mission has changed only slightly. they no longer only help child soldiers, but many other people in Africa as well. Some of their items sold in the store on their website is made in Africa by the people they're helping. What I love about this organization is that they help people that nobody really thought about. There was a huge war going on over in Africa and nobody really knew. They brought that to the forefront of so many people's minds by giving them a taste of what life was like. It got people involved. It MADE them want to help. It made them THINK. That's what the organization is about.
