Mwamba children’s choir has a vision of building a children’s community centre which will involve schools, accommodation, medication centre, health centre and gardens. They are part of a local charity I am Children’s family which looks after abandoned children, street children, orphans, single parent kid who can not afford education or a place where to leave.

The US tours have been fundamental to their vision that land has already been set aside ready for the construction to start.

Stephen Sekitende project director said “We have a dream to build a multi-purpose facility to accommodate and teach our children in a safe and God-fearing environment”

The local media has blogged and reported on the choir as there has  been a buzz about the choir in the US state of Maryland.

“Students in Westminster got a very special concert Tuesday morning. The Mwamba Children’s Choir performed. It took the children 24 hours to get to the United States from Africa, and they came all this way to sing and dance” WBAL TV News
