The mission of The Bitone Childrens Home/Troupe is to restore the lives and hopes of Ugandan children between 8 and 18 years old who have been traumatized by the death of their parents or loss of their home due to disease, war, or economic hardship. They are given counselling, an academic education and training in traditional Ugandan music, dance and drama which they love!

Thie video shows them taking part in the Oxjam music festival for Oxfam. Bitone is a great example of how music can enrich people's lives and be used to help end poverty.
It's not to late to get involved. Put on a music event, play at an event, volunteer at an event or just go and enjoy the night!
