After getting home from the studio I spent much of the night reading up on Nate and the details of what occurred.  It’s truly a tragic and sad story.  I found it somewhat comforting to know that Nate was following his dreams and doing what he loved, helping people.  He was so happy to be in Uganda visiting friends that he had made while working with Invisible Children, and a non-profit organization who’s purpose is to raise awareness about the use of child soldiers in Northern Uganda as well as raise money to build schools and provide education to war-affected children.  You can read more about Nate Henn as well as Invisible Children and their mission by clicking the embedded links.

In situations like this I feel it’s important to identify the good that can come out of it, and in this case it seems to me that Nate would want people to become more aware the situation in Uganda and to further Invisible Children’s mission to help the children caught among the chaos there.  We’re currently working on setting up a promotion with proceeds to be donated to Invisible Children.  We will post it on our blog as soon as it’s ready.

In the meantime, here are a few pictures from the wedding.  Nate is the black jacket holding up the bride in these two photos.

Our hearts go out to Nate’s friends and family during this difficult time.
