Saddle Up NYC - the African Children's Choir is coming back to NYC this fall and can't wait to celebrate with you!

The African Children's Choir ChangeMakers Gala is an annual event that raises funds and awareness for the African Children's Choir. The Choir is a program of a larger international organization called Music for Life, which provides thousands of impoverished children with education, discipleship, and leadership skills necessary to continue making positive, lasting change.

We are excited to welcome back our special friends and wonderful co-hosts CONNIE BRITTON, CARLA GUGINO and ADRIANNE PALICKI who always make our event extra special. Connie, Carla and Adrianne can't wait to share the stage again and promise an unforgettable evening.

Come share the love and help us continue to support the African Children's Choir's efforts. Their mission is to help Africa's most vulnerable children today, so they can help Africa tomorrow. The children in the choir represent the potential of thousands who are trapped in the cycle of poverty.

Your generosity gives these children a quality education, fosters creativity and wisdom, and prepares them for success in all aspects of life.

Please join us for a fantastic night of food, song and dance with an exclusive performance by the African Children's Choir and other special guests.
