Our Crowdfunding Groups
Thank you for your interest in the Voices of Inner Strength Momentum project. This campaign has ended, but you can still support the Voices of Inner Strength Choir by making a gift here today!
A sense of belonging isn't always immediate for new college students, and for many students at Emory for more than a generation, it has come through the Voices of Inner Strength (VOIS) Gospel Choir within the Emory Office of Spiritual and Religious Life (OSRL).
The choir began with a concert on April 21, 1985 that included a homily by Civil Rights leader The Rev. C.T. Vivian and it has continued to offer empowerment, encouragement, support, and a home-space for Emory students and audiences ever since.
VOIS sings at the Beloved Community worship service once each month, performs a campus concert each semester, and sings at university events such as Baccalaureate. In addition, VOIS’ activities have included spring break service trips, singing at churches around Atlanta, and performing acts of service locally.
To learn more about VOIS, please visit the VOIS page.
We welcome your generous contributions to the Voices Choir Fund, established to continue the tradition of musical leadership, spiritual community, and student solidarity represented by VOIS. Your gifts help continue this tradition of spirit and song to bless Emory and all those who are served by this choir, ensuring that it continues into the future.
