Empowering the academic, social and spiritual lives of children through artistry in music

We provide self care in the form of live music to educators and social service providers.

Our mission is to inspire and change lives through music. Founded as a single choir in Hyde Park at the height of the Civil Rights Movement in 1956, in a traditional year, we serve nearly 5,000 youth from every Chicago zip code. Our founder, Reverend Christopher Moore, believed in using music to unite youth from diverse backgrounds. That simple yet powerful mission has grown exponentially, with programs in 92 city schools, 11 neighborhoods, a choir for boys with changing voices and the world-renowned Voice of Chicago. Under the leadership of President and Artistic Director Josephine Lee, Uniting Voices Chicago's mission has been elevated to a world stage, using music to create global citizens and revolutionizing the youth choral arts.

One Voice Children's Choir is a non-profit organization that provides children aged 4-18 opportunities to cultivate an appreciation for music and share the talents they develop with a global community. Our goal is to provide entertainment, community service and engagement, and to empower our youth to become the leaders of tomorrow as they deliver uplifting messages to change the world for the better.

To strengthen young people’s social and emotional skills for every stage in life, through dialogue, creativity and performance.
