Sorry, I just realized that the time is wrong in the previous email. The
event starts at 8pm in the heritage room.

> Hello Fellow Leaders,
>
> I know it's real short notice, but I figured that I would still make an
> attempt to get you all to come out to a really awesome AIESEC event.
>
> We will be showing a documentary called “Invisible Children” which
> discusses the lives of child soldiers in Uganda. Northern Uganda is in the
> midst of a civil war that is tearing apart the population. Rebel forces
> are constantly in need of more soldiers, and without willing participants,
> they continually kidnap children and mold them into hardened killers. To
> avoid this fate, thousands of children leave their homes to find safety.
>
> “The war continues to take its toll on those who have been suffering for
> nearly two decades. The displaced now number 1.5 million. Gulu alone hosts
> an estimated 15,000 children nightly, who sleep in the bus park, emergency
> accommodation centers, or—when these overflow—on the verandas of local
> Samaritans. The children who do this become more prone to illness, hunger,
> vagrancy, and exploitation” (InvisibleChildren.com).
>
>    By showing the documentary, we hope to raise awareness about these
> events and hopefully encourage students, faculty, and staff to take some
> time to learn about what goes on in other parts of the world that are too
> often ignored by the press.
>    We will be collecting donations to help better the lives of these
> children at the event, but there is no admission cost.
