Description:

Voices of Hope (VoH) was formed in 2004 by two of The Young Kuala Lumpur Singers (YKLS) members, a step for the choir to make a more conscious effort in their choir community outreach work. In 2006, it officially became the charity arm of the Young Choral Academy (YCA).Besides the continuous effort in dedicating tickets to charity homes during the choir’s previous productions to date, VoH also ran a weekly program to teach songs and musicianship to underprivileged children (between the ages of 9 to 15 years) from 2004 to 2007. Periodically, VoH holds recitals to raise funds for good causes and beneficiaries have included Nanyang Press Foundation (for the underprivileged and single mothers) and the Cyclone Nargis Disaster Relief Fund 2008. This time round, VoH is organising a CHORALTON (choral marathon) in aid of Pusat Jagaan Kanak-kanak Kasih, a children’s home located at No.14 Jalan SS3/84, PJ. All-day passes are available at a minimum of RM25 donation, and all proceeds will be going directly to the home’s building fund.CHORALTHON is an 7-hour event kicking off at 10am till approximately 5pm. It will feature performances by the KL Children’s Choir (consisting of approximately 150 children of primary or pre-school age), school choirs from SK Taman Megah, SMK Seafield, SMK Damansara Jaya, SMK Katolik and SMK USJ14, as well as adult choirs from the Malaysian Institute of Arts (MIA) and the Young Choral Academy, all of whom are dedicating their upcoming performances at the CHORALTHON for a very good cause.
