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, an educational scholarship through their nation’s university or vocational levels to instill love, joy, hope, and optimism for the future.
Please join the Norfolk Library for a special concert on Thursday, August 21 at 4:00 p.m. to hear these powerful voices. Handmade crafts by the choristers and CDs will be for sale.

Founded in 2005 by Don and Jennie Windham, the Matsiko World Orphan Choir became an international phenomenon. The Matsiko World Orphan Choir is made up of sponsored children from Liberia, Peru, India, and Nepal. Matsiko is the first choir to allow children in the sponsorship program to come to the US and tour as ambassadors for the world’s 600 million orphaned and at-risk children. Having performed at major league sports events, Disneyland, and even the White House, the choir has given countless children an opportunity to travel and perform, meet American host families, and then return to their home country with a greater vision for themselves and their place in the world.
The Matsiko sponsorship program is unique in that it provides every sponsored child with a complete education. To learn more, visit here.
