Kwaya Australia Inc will bring The African Children's Choir to tour Eastern Australia from July to September 2013. The love affair started two years ago when Kwaya made their first trip to Uganda to work alongside The African Children's choir in the slums of Uganda.
Since 2011 Aussie singers have raised over $140,000 to go directly towards projects assisting kids in the slums of Uganda.
We now wish to bring The African Childrens Choir to tour the Eastern Coast of Australia to perform and engage in musical and cultural exchanges and workshops with the Australian public.
The tour will consist of 20 children and 8 chaperones. On tour they will be hosted by Australian families.

Domestic Airfares - $13,080
Bus Costs - $3500
