When Hurricane Katrina hit this country, we saw for the first time what a displaced American looks like. Now we’re asking you to imagine for 24 hours what it’s like for the millions of people in Northern Uganda who have been displaced for over ten years.
We want our government to support the peace talks and aid those suffering in the displaced person camps. On April 28, join tens of thousands who are saying “Displace Me” and leaving their homes - to bring them home.”
You may have heard of the situation in Uganda. Children fighting as soldiers, and being displaced from their homes. Well Invisible Children is trying to stop that. They host many projects, trying to get our Government to take part. All they need is your help.
Hurricane Katrina was one of the worst times our country has been through. Leaving tons of people homeless, taking everything from them: their homes, their family, and their memories. But in Uganda, children have been displaced for over ten years, and it’s been over a year since Katrina, and still, not everything is back to normal.

Invisible Children has been working on tons of projects, trying to get the government to realize the seriousness of the Uganda situation, and to help. Last year, they hosted Global Commute Night, where over 80,000 people came out and slept on the streets for peace. Two months later, peace talks came. It was then they realized, that the people did affect the government’s decisions.
This April, they are asking YOU, for 24 hours, to imagine what it would be like to be displaced, like those in Uganda. There, they will ask the government to sponsor peace talks. They are asking you to leave your home, for one night, to bring them home.
"You must be the change you wish to see in the world."
