African Children's Choir
The African Children’s Choir
The mission of the African Children's Choir is to help Africa’s most vulnerable children today, so
they can help Africa tomorrow. With a focus on education, the Choir is currently caring for
several thousand underprivileged children throughout Africa. These are children who could have
lost all hope, but have overcome their circumstances and now are making a positive impact on
society.
The African Children's Choir has been working with the most vulnerable children in Africa for 23
years, raising awareness of the plight of Africa’s orphaned and abandoned, but also showing the
beauty, dignity and potential of each African child. They perform throughout the world bringing
hope and joy to everyone they meet. They are a voice for the millions of children suffering in
Africa.
What Is Their Concert Like?
The children melt the hearts of audiences with their charming smiles, beautiful voices and lively
African songs and dances. The program features well-loved children’s songs, traditional
spirituals and contemporary tunes. Nearly every performance is concluded with a thunderous
standing ovation. In spite of the tragedy that has marred their young lives, the children are
radiant with hope, musically gifted and wonderfully entertaining.
Where Have They Performed?
The African Children's Choir has performed thousands of community concerts around the world
and has been welcomed for special performances at such places as the United Nations, the
White House and Capitol Hill. Other venues to host the African Children's Choir include Royal
Albert Hall, Madison Square Garden, and Carnegie Hall.
The Choir has appeared on nearly every major television network in the United States, on “Jay
Leno” “Good Morning America”, “Ellen”, and “American Idol” alongside the likes of Wyclef Jean,
Josh Groban, the Gaither Vocal Band and Michael W. Smith.
What Is The Purpose Of The Tour?
The primary goal of the African Children's Choir is to raise awareness of the need of destitute
and orphaned children in Africa and to raise funds for continued development and support of the
African Children’s Choir Programs. The Choir’s international educational endeavor provides
unique training for the children. Once Choir members have completed a concert tour, they will
return to their homelands with the tools necessary for bettering their future.
