The Hurricane Choir is thousands of voices with one purpose:

to create a warm, friendly and supportive environment capable of reaching out to all people who are suffering primarily from, but not limited to, the consequences of the hurricanes in the regions along the Gulf Coast of the USA.

Through a diverse selection of creative arts, multimedia and music which best represents a diversity of culture, combined with stories of personal experiences as told directly by those in the choir to help encourage emotional healing; to bring these stories to a global audience ensuring the people of the nation and the people of the world, gain an understanding of the hardships and challenges endured by survivors of disasters.

It will further provide all members with exposure to the healing power of music and better access to community development workers, mental health professionals, social workers and skilled volunteers; to help members rebuild their lives and their communities; to assist with financial contributions to charitable organizations and services assisting with the recovery from such increasing disasters.

Our Purpose

Our one purpose is to join together as many voices as we can from the communities of southern Louisiana who were devastated by massive hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Through coming together to sing, we will continue to raise funds for Volunteers of America, build social networks, raise awareness of singing as an instrument for healing, and continue data collection for a world first research project to measure the effects of choral singing on mental health.
