GROWTH

Harmony Project was formed in 2009 with the mission of building a stronger and more inclusive community through the arts and volunteer services.  From an initial chorus of 100 people who agreed to sing and serve in their community, the organization has grown:

  • over 1,000 people sing weekly
  • tens of thousands attend concerts and performances
  • programs serving differently-abled adults; men and women who have experienced homelessness; students from across the economic spectrum, yet predominantly from low income households; women and men serving time; veterans, and restored citizens
  • volunteer hours exceed 60,000 per year
