My Story…

The Vancouver Youth Choir had been apart of my life since 2014. The past 6 years with this choir has brought me so much joy and opportunity. I have grown into the person that I am today, because of this choir, and Carrie Tennant. VYC provides youth a safe place to truly be themselves and create beautiful music. As most of the people in my life know — music is a really important to me and being able to participate in a choir such as VYC has been a privilege all these years. Since the pandemic, the choral community took a huge hit. This was supposed to be my last year singing with VYC and it was unfortunately brought to an abrupt end. I'm running 10K to try and raise money for VYC because I want future youth to experience participating in VYC, or the chance to see this choir perform. Please help by donating whatever you can! Any little bit helps.

Description

The Vancouver Youth Choir is Vancouver’s newest choral organization for children and youth. Founded in 2013 by Carrie Tennant, the choirs provide a space for promising young singers to develop their artistry in a safe and supportive environment. In six years, the organization has grown from a single choir of 30 members to more than 250 members in five separate ensembles. Says Artistic Director Carrie Tennant: “In all our levels, we strive for artistry and excellence. We believe in the artistic potential of young people regardless of their age, ability or experience. Just as important to us, however, is to create a safe and encouraging place for this artistry to develop. In addition to building skill and fostering talent, it is part of the Vancouver Youth Choir’s mandate to develop creative, caring citizens who value contributing to and investing in their communities.”
