The Soweto Marimba Youth League (SMYLe) project is a musical outreach programme that seeks to offer under-privileged children living in the Dobsonville area of Soweto an opportunity to overcome adversity, work towards a common goal, and to reach the pinnacle of the success they choose for themselves.

These professionally trained dancers and musicians will offer a unique glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of South Africa.

Proceeds from the event will support Rachel’s Home, our mission project in neighboring Lesotho. The youth of Soweto performing in Central in support of the children of Lesotho. Mark it on your calendar. It promises to be a very special night.
