Heres the details:

There aren't any plans for another one at this time but invisible children has loads of stuff you can get involved in... go to invisiblechildren.com. You can buy bracelets and shirts to support the kids in Uganda or donate or write to our Prime Minister. You can also buy the dvd from the site and host a house showing.
