HELP A CHILD FIND THEIR VOICE
The Springfield Children’s Choir is looking for caring adults who would like to help encourage and support our young singers during our inaugural season. You do not need to be a musician—just someone who enjoys working with children and wants to help create a welcoming, positive experience. There are several ways to serve, and Advocates may choose the schedule and role that works best for them.
