SHARING THE JOY OF MUSIC AND OUR RESOURCES

Voices’ community outreach extends beyond our two annual concerts. Each year we perform in community festivals, memorial services for Voices members and special concerts such as the Soweto Gospel Choir’s performance at The Music Hall. Every year, we also make a donation to a local community nonprofit chosen by active Voices’ members, and every trip abroad involves a fundraising effort.

The Voices Choice donation was inspired by our trip to Ireland in 2001, where we raised funds for Friends Forever and for domestic violence agencies in Ireland. Our international efforts were followed by raising funds to clear a minefield in Croatia for our 2007 tour, collecting needed items to bring and distribute during our 2012 Cuba tour, and raising money to support a non-profit in South Africa called Music Works in 2018.
