Visit the Website

Schools for Schools is a program that inspires schools from around the world to raise money to help bring war-affected schools in Northern Uganda to a nationally competitive standard. The Web site is a safe and secure invitation-only online community, designed for the high school demographic – Invisible Children's strongest supporters. Students are inspired to use creativity to raise money for the organization, and then to showcase ideas and communicate with other young activists. With a healthy mix of collaboration and competition, Schools for Schools exemplifies the future of online communities by taking a proven online social networking model and using it to combine small, independent efforts to make a huge difference. The "Real-Time Results" section of the Web site allows students to see the dynamic atmosphere of students across the world signing up, raising money and making a difference. Visual benchmarks on school profiles allow students to instantly understand the impact of their donation on five major categories: water, teachers, books, buildings and technology. Online fundraising totaled $1,207,376 for Phase One which began in February 2007 and lasted 100 days. Phase 2 began in Fall 2007 and has already generated $1,141.323.
