Mission Statement

At Youth Voice of Seattle, we are dedicated to empowering young individuals to share their musical talents with the community while supporting them in building and improving their confidence in front of an audience. By inspiring youth to perform music for the general public, we foster their growth in essential performing arts and public speaking skills, while also empowering them to serve the community.

How We Started

We began our nonprofit organization as a service project to benefit retirement homes where attending a public concert may not have been easily accessible. We decided to create this nonprofit organization to help expand and broaden our impact on the community so that we can gain more members in the future.
