“I’m a dreamer, mostly. I love to dream about my future and how I can create new ways of getting the word out about the injustices that are happening in this world,” says Brenna Gourgeot, a junior scheduled to graduate in May 2013.

In dual enrollment at both New Orleans Charter Math and Science High School and New Orleans Center for Creative Arts, Gourgeot still finds time to volunteer with the organization Invisible Children. Invisible Children is a nonprofit organization based out of San Diego, Calif., dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of Congolese, Sudanese and Central Africa Republican children who have been devastated by Joseph Kony and his vicious Lord’s Resistance Army.

“I cannot possibly imagine living a life that isn’t dedicated to helping other people. I want my future and my career to be focused on using my talents to help other people. I would like to one day be able to use my art to enlighten people on the issues that are a part of their global or national society,” says Gourgeot.
