THE MATSIKO
WORLD ORPHAN CHOIR
Hear the Joy|See the Hope |Feel the Love
The internationally known MATSIKO World Orphan Choir performed an energetic and moving concert here on Tuesday, October 8th as their current USA tour approaches its conclusion.
​
The group of 35 youths from Liberia stayed here for 3 nights while they performed at various venues in the area. From here they traveled to Pittsburg for their next series of concerts.
​
Best of luck to this wonderful group of international ambassadors as they continue to raise awareness of the poverty in their homeland and underscore the need for assistance to help educate the youth in an effort to create real and sustainable opportunities for a better life.
