Overview of Idea

We are producing a documentary feature film about the African Children's Choir. We believe in the power of storytelling to bring people together and know that the story of these kids will inspire and activate our global community to unite in making this a better world through education & music!

The Specifics: What will the $3,000 fund?

This $3,000 will help fund our film production. We just returned from a 3-week shoot to get the kids backstories of poverty & hope in Uganda. Then we filmed their flight to America and their 1st week & 1st US concert.

Over their yearlong tour we will film the kids experiencing many more firsts such as snow, elevators & singing with music legends such as Dierks Bentley and Broadway’s The Lion King.

We will also capture the children’s transformation as they are educated & given a chance to shine. The Westerners who meet the Choir will have their eyes & hearts opened to both the need & beauty of Africa’s most vulnerable kids.

Finally, we’ll return to Uganda w/the kids at end of tour and witness as they begin to make Uganda better!
