Children from Uganda and Kenya will share their lively music from their native lands. The choir is made up of some of the neediest and most vulnerable children in their countries. Many have lost one or both parents to poverty or disease. The African Children's Choir helps these children break away from the everyday cycle of poverty and hopelessness.
Before being selected to join the choir, children, generally between the ages of 7 and 11, attend Music for Life camps. These camps are stimulating environments that provide a break from the daily hardships that the young children face at home. When they return to Africa, the African Children's Choir provides care and education that builds on the unique international exposure the children experienced abroad. They receive education, leadership training and a spiritual ministry at the Music for Life Primary School in Kampala or at other schools in their countries.
There is no charge for the concerts, however, donations will be accepted.
