The African Children's Choir, with its parent organization, Music for Life, aims to help their country's most vulnerable children today, so they can help Africa grow in the future.
This Saturday and Wednesday, these 18 talented young singers will be performing in Harlan and Berne, Indiana.
The first African Children's Choir was established in 1984, by Ray Barnett. Now, 46 choirs later, their message of hope continues to be shared, and the love offerings they've collected on tour have helped about 1,000 former choir members complete school and educated more than 52,000 children in their own countries.
