Schools4Schools Offers A New Twist To The Competition
by TAMMY ROSECRANS, Causecast Editor
“Fourth time is the charm!” That’s what our beloved Jason Russell is calling out to all Invisible Children fans. The question is, are you interested in a trip to Uganda??
The Schools4Schools program challenges schools to raise awareness for the violence that has transpired over the last two decades in northern Uganda. The campaign engages students by pairing their schools with secondary schools in northern Uganda. The best part? The school that raises the most money wins a trip to Uganda to visit their partner school! So? It’s been done before, you may say…
Well, there is a new twist!
IC has just announced that in addition to the original campaign, there is now a November competition! It doesn’t matter how much money you have raised thus far; this is an entirely new competition. Now there are two chances to win that coveted trip to northern Uganda!
This new video explains it all…
From the boys of IC:
Nearly $75,000 has been raised this year alone! Keep it up kids! Or if you’re still unsure about this whole IC craze, check out this quick and easy guide to what Invisible Children is all about!
