The six month tour coming to Australia presents the story of abandoned African children and vulnerable women, who've been empowered to rise above their circumstances, and answer the call to be part of the new Africa - ready to make a difference in the world.
Wototo Children's Choirs have travelled extensively since 1994 and sharing a message of hope for Africa's most vulnerable children and women.
On almost every day of the year, the choir is performing somewhere in the world. Hundreds of thousands of people get to meet some of Africa's future leaders.
People see their smiles and are embraced by their hugs.
The children have the distinct privilege of telling people, "Its possible to have joy, to laugh and to have hope no matter what you're going through".
Like Africa, the production is vibrant and colourful, taking you on an emotional journey from utter despair to joyous celebration, as the children and women share their personal stories of triumph in story and song.
Other than coming to Africa yourself, what better way to learn about all the good things happening in Uganda than through this stirring and musical experience.
At the end of the performance the audience will be given the opportunity to contribute to a "Love Offering" to help Watoto provide vulnerable children and women with homes, education, medical care and most of all the love of a family.
