Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Social justice awareness through singing

To perform music that motivates and inspires our communities toward justice, diversity and equality as we strive for peace and to create our web of mutuality. The name "world house choir" is rooted in dr. Martin luther king, jr.'s metaphor that we must create a "world house" in which we all live together in peace and justice. The name refers to the choice each person must make - to live in community or chaos, particularly in a nation where racial stereotypes remain strong and multi-culturalism a work-in- progress.
