KATU honors Maybelle Community Singers with award

On April 3rd, our community choir, Maybelle Community Singers, received a 2018 Newsmaker Award. Each year, Portland-area media newsrooms nominate a story that has inspired positive change in our community at a banquet sponsored by the Royal Rosarians.

KATU nominated their coverage of the Maybelle Community Singers/Oregon Symphony collaboration that highlighted issues of poverty and houselessness in our community. Thank you to our friends at KATU for recognizing the hard work and vision of our community choir. 

Together, we are demonstrating that the power of song can create positive social change.
