Mission Statement
Builds communities of music makers that empower youth to occupy their unique advantage in transforming our world.
Values
Community
The uniqueness and strength of singing communities and the innate connective tissue between young people and caring adults generate greater awareness of our shared humanity. This unique connection is to be celebrated, cultivated, and protected.
Power of Song
Song has matchless properties to share joy, heal brokenness, build community, deliver a message, and inspire social change.
Every Child Can Achieve
Every child has a unique set of competencies, strengths, interests, experiences, and weaknesses that contribute to her learning and communication style and position them for personal success. We must all work to build a society where all youth can safely flourish and thrive.
Cantar y Luchar (“Sing and Strive”)
Our community strives consistently towards excellence in the process of music making as a model for achieving and goal setting in life.
Persistence pays! Community is key. Roadblocks do not justify failure. Make it happen! Go together!
