Filed under: Jewelry, Charity, Charity of the Day

Invisible Children is a charity that helps the impoverished children of Northern Uganda, in 2005 they started the Bracelet Campaign. Each bracelet is handmade in Uganda from reed and recycled wire and comes with a short film that tells the story of a child who has been affected by the war . After decades of war and upheaval, northern Uganda's economy has been decimated. Millions have been relocated to camps where they must depend on rations from international aid. The bracelet program provides work to the displaced families, and provides them with much needed income. Bracelets come in four different styles, and cost $20. What a great conversation piece, you can educate people by wearing one, and feel fabulous about helping a person in need.
