Music is really,
really, really powerful in itself,
and in what it can
do for you outside of music.
Korogocho is one of the largest slum
neighborhoods in Nairobi, Kenya,
but due to extreme poverty, there's
limited access to youth arts programs.
Since 2008, a community program called
Ghetto Classics has been trying to change that.
My name is Elizabeth Njoroge, and I'm the
founder and director of the Ghetto Classics program.
Ghetto Classics is a program that started
off here in Karogocho.
It's about using music to change the lives
of young Kenyans,
and, in particular, those from very difficult
environments and backgrounds and lives.
Korogocho is hard, but we hope that in our
space we are creating a better Korogocho.
We teach 600 kids a week.
We have violins, one viola, the cellos.
We have flute, clarinets, saxophones,
tubas, trombones, trumpets.
We only got French horns the other
day, which is very exciting.
We see that the discipline that comes with
the kind of music that we teach,
in this case classical music is something
very important for these kids,
because it's something they may
lack at home.
So they play together, make music
together, that gives them family.
The lives of the kids are
just so, so, so difficult.
The challenges they face.
They've been crushed by life,
having, you know, no hope when everybody
around you is just fighting to survive.
So we hope that in our space,
we're creating a place
where dreams can be nourished
and can grow and be fulfilled.
