FALL INTO FUN
NOVEMBER COMMUNITY EVENT SCHEDULE
KidsRock4Kids is pleased to announce the following FREE Community events for the month of November:
saturday – november 1st – invisible children presents: go!
KidsRock4Kids is thrilled to invite you to Washington District Library (Media Room) to meet the 2008 Invisible Children street team, and view the movie premiere of their new movie “Go!”
For more than 20 years the people of Northern Uganda have been victims of a brutal and vicious war. An entire generation of teenagers has grown up knowing only fear and violence. For many, their indoctrination into the LRA (Lord’s Resistance Army) began as young as the age of 10. In the case of girls held captive by the LRA, 11 and 12 year olds are forced to become “wives” (sexual slaves) of the grown male soldiers. Although a treaty has been signed between the government and the LRA, the damage and devastation remain.
The Schools for Schools program is a unique non-profit whose sole focus is to bring awareness and provide necessary supplies and educational materials to these children. Their new film “GO!” will provide a firsthand account from an amazing group of teens who recently traveled to Northern Uganda and saw the impact up close and personal. KidsRock4Kids is proud to do our small part in helping this program continue its mission.

We wanted to publicly thank everyone who attended. Our expectations where exceeded and the kids where so polite and well-behaved.
