African Children's Choir Will Perform in Atlanta on February 2, 2008

A group of 20+ talented and incredibly resilient African children living amidst poverty and disease continue to show the world that there is hope in spite of the heartache and terror they have suffered during their short lives. Many of these youngsters have experienced the loss of one or both of their parents as the result of famine, illness or war and yet they are still able to lift their voices in song. Those who have been fortunate enough to see them perform on a variety of television shows such as American Idol, The Tonight Show and The Ellen Degeneres Show, will never forget the emotions generated by these remarkable young people. From their humble beginnings on a continent plagued with constant turmoil, these children literally fight for their future daily and yet somehow have managed to rise above the devastation that has been their lives. They have performed their contemporary and traditional music for royalty, presidents, and members of the United Nations General Assembly. The choir has performed side by side with such notable musicians as Sir Paul McCartney and Mariah Carey at the 2005 Live 8 Concert in London.
