SUMMARY:Matsiko World Orphan Choir
DESCRIPTION:The Strand Welcomes Back This Amazing International Children’s Choir That Brings Joy\, Hope & Love Through Music |  \n\n\n\nSince 2008\, the Matsiko World Orphan Choir has brought together our world’s orphaned and vulnerable children to share their story of turning the pain of loss\, hunger\, and hopelessness into personal empowerment through music\, dance\, story- telling\, and the importance of a complete education to break the cycle of poverty. Matsiko believes every child has dignity and worth. Matsiko is a Ugandan word that means hope. The mission of Matsiko Children International is to provide Hope through Education; to transform the lives of the world’s most vulnerable and at-risk children through a complete education. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe World Orphan Choir uses the unifying power of music to uplift every child\, bring joy to all who listen\, and to inspire generosity that provides a complete education. Choir members receive a full tuition scholarship through college in their home country\, and while on tour receive one-on-one school tutoring\, improvement of their English language skills\, and a cross-culture experience. The choir is composed of children from all of the countries that Matsiko serves – India\, Peru\, Uganda\, Nepal\, Liberia\, and The Philippines. These amazing children are ambassadors for the world’s 600 million at-risk or orphaned children. Proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to Matsiko Children’s International whose mission is to provide a full education to orphaned and at-risk children in some of the world’s most impoverished nations..  \n\n\n\nMatsiko seeks to break the generational cycle of poverty and to prevent child trafficking which has become an international crisis. \n\n\n\nAdditional proceeds from ticket sales will support the ongoing relief efforts in Nepal\, one of the countries that Matsiko serves\, after the devastating flash flood and avalanches in that country that killed over 1\,000 people with thousands still unaccounted for. \n\n\n\n\nMatsiko World Orphan Choir \n\n\n\nThursday ONLY! February 11 | 7:00pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuy Tickets\n\n\n\n\nTo arrange for handicapped accessible seating\, please call The Strand Box Office at 724.742.0400. Hours are Noon – 4pm\, Tuesday – Saturday. The Strand does not have an elevator.
