SING FOR

RURAL WOMEN

Women are the driving force behind rural communities, yet they have less access to resources and services than men.

They're often overburdened with domestic tasks, while social norms prevent many from voicing their thoughts.

Join us and the Grammy award-winning Soweto Gospel Choir and sing for rural women so more people can hear why they matter.
