When young voices come together, they can create more than music – they can create hope, transform lives and shape a brighter tomorrow.
In a unique initiative that beautifully blends music, devotion and social responsibility, ‘Chorus for a Cause 2026 – By the Kids, For the Kids’, a special devotional music concert featuring talented children and young musicians from Coimbatore will be held on Saturday, November 14, 2026, from 6.00 p.m. to 8.00 p.m. at the Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan Auditorium, D.B. Road, R.S. Puram, Coimbatore.
The concert aims to raise funds and awareness for the Art of Living’s Gift a Smile initiative, which supports the Art of Living Free Schools Project. Through this initiative, children from economically disadvantaged and underserved communities are provided access to education and opportunities for a brighter future.
The Art of Living Free Schools Project has made a significant impact across India, reaching over 120,000 children across 1,356 schools, 2,032 villages and 22 states. The initiative works towards making education accessible to children who would otherwise have limited opportunities to pursue their aspirations.
The evening promises captivating devotional music performances by children and young singers from Coimbatore’s music community. Beyond the musical experience, it will be a celebration of compassion, community participation and the joy of giving.
The initiative is presented in the spirit of service of The Art of Living, which proudly celebrates 45 years of inspiring individuals and transforming communities through its commitment to human values, service and social development.
Carrying forward this legacy, the Art of Living Coimbatore Chapter seeks to harness the collective power of music and young talent to create meaningful opportunities for children from underserved communities.
Speaking about the initiative, the Facilitator of this program at the Art of Living – Coimbatore Chapter, said, “Education is not just a pathway to a better future; it is every child’s fundamental opportunity to dream, discover and fulfil their potential. Through Chorus for a Cause, we want to create a platform where children become ambassadors of change for other children.
The thought behind “By the Kids, For the Kids” is very special – when children use their talents to support the education of their less fortunate peers, they experience the true joy of giving and the power of seva.
We hope this initiative inspires the people of Coimbatore to come together and light up the lives of thousands of children through the gift of education.”
The organisers invite the people of Coimbatore, corporates, philanthropists, music lovers and well-wishers to be part of this meaningful initiative by extending their support through contributions and sponsorships.
