The majority of the public does NOT know just how life-changing the Philadelphia Boys Choir has been for its members over the past 50 years.
Rooted in respect, self-discipline, and diversity, this choir family takes boys from all over the City, New Jersey and the Suburbs and teaches them how to interact with each other and with the world at large. You only need to listen to Ukee Washington’s opening for “Man in the Mirror” on YouTube to hear his story.
Developing a demand for excellence and a strong work ethic in each boy gives him the strength needed to become a young man of good character. No matter what career these young men pursue, they will be well equipped to succeed after being a part of this family and culture.
So please, convince a family member, a friend, a co-worker to have their 7-10 year old try out for this experience. Yes, it is singing, but it is so much MORE than that! Help us to help the children of the Greater Philadelphia Area that you know may need it most. And remember that it is NOT about having a polished voice at the audition. It is about willingness to give it a shot. Then we can truly help you find the right place for your child - both in the Philadelphia Boys Choir and in the Philadelphia Girls Choir. Your gift to the family will be remembered and appreciated.
