The idea behind Sounds of Hope, Ltd. is a simple one, really. To understand a culture, meet its people. Listen. Talk. Live together. Sing together. Play a game. Share. Songs of Hope unites children and adults from countries and cultures worldwide. Our purpose is to create opportunities for cultural sharing through daily camp life, in rehearsals, and on stage. Songs of Hope is a non-profit project with an emphasis not only on learning, but also but also on service to others.
