Story

Songbound is a music outreach initiative that uses singing to reach out to India's most impoverished children via collaborative ongoing projects with schools, choirs and professional musicians worldwide. 

To date Songbound runs nine choirs in various slum areas of Mumbai and Bangalore. Since starting to sing the children have shown significant signs of development in confidence, focus in learning and diminishing aggression.

 

Music is not a luxury. It is central to who we are and how we feel.

 

 

About the charity

KINOE raises funds for educational projects in the Indian subcontinent, helping 6,000 children who would otherwise receive no education. It funds the Akanksha project in Mumbai which provides schooling to children from the slums to help them have a better life, as well as two schools in Nepal.
