The concert will take place Aug. 16 at 6:30 p.m. There is no admission fee, but proceeds from a free-will offering will support the choir's programs, such as education, care and relief, and development projects. Music for Life (MFL), the parent organization for the Choir, works in seven African countries — Uganda, Kenya, Rwanda, Sudan, Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa. MFL has educated more than 52,000 children and impacted the lives of over 100,000 people through its relief and development programs during its history. MFL's purpose is to help create new leadership for tomorrow's Africa, by focusing on education. The African Children's Choir has performed before presidents, heads of state and most recently Queen Elizabeth for her diamond jubilee. The Choir has also sung alongside famous artists such as Paul McCartney, Annie Lennox, Keith Urban, Mariah Carey, Michael W. Smith and other inspirational performers. The choir recently recorded some tracks with Sarah Hickman for a CD, Love Is a Journey. They will also have a small role in the upcoming Warner Brothers movie Pan, starring Hugh Jackman. --------------------------------------------------- Images: --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2015-07-30 09:17:12 Post date GMT: 2015-07-30 13:17:12 Post modified date: 2015-07-30 09:17:12 Post modified date GMT: 2015-07-30 13:17:12 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
