The African Chidren’s Choir is “more than just a choir,” according to a news release sent out announcing the concert.
“It’s part of a larger, international Christian organization called Music for Life, which provides thousands of impoverished children throughout Africa with the education, discipleship and leadership skills needed to rise above their conditions so they can bring positive, lasting change to their families, communities and countries,” the news release said.
Each child in the choir has faced “significant hardship, often with limited access to education,” according to the news release. “Yet, through the Choir, these children gain life-changing opportunities for education and personal growth, becoming beacons of hope for their communities.”
Choir Manager Tina Sipp said: “The African Children’s Choir proves just how powerful music can be. These concerts not only provide hope and encouragement to our audiences, but they offer the children life-changing experiences that help shape them into future leaders.”
