Detský Domov Children's Home Receives Donation |
|
|
During their summer 2009 European tour, the choir spent an afternoon with the children at Detský Domov in Bratislava, Slovakia. Detský Domov is a home for Slovakian children who either have no family or whose family is unable to care for them. The Minnesota girls and the Slovak youngsters played soccer, made bracelets and though they couldn't understand each other, read together. By day's end, Detský Domov's children had learned to sing "Itsy Bitsy Spider."
Inspired by the time they spent with the children in Bratislava, the Bella singers used their "Home From The Alps" homecoming concert as an appeal for donations to the children in Bratislava.The audience responded generously and Sing Out Loud recently sent a donation of $1650 to Detský Domov for the benefit of the children living at the home. |
