Our Mission and Vision

Mission
Caritas is a vocal ensemble that creates unique and surprising concerts to benefit the community in collaboration with community partners that share our values.

Vision
Caritas expands the possibilities of a volunteer vocal ensemble, rooting vocal music in the community and contributing meaningfully to both. 

Caritas is the Twin Cities’ premier avocational vocal ensemble, committed equally to artistic excellence and community service. Through partnerships with nonprofit organizations across the Twin Cities metro, Caritas uses highly refined choral performance to amplify community causes and raise awareness of the vital services these organizations provide.

We prepare and perform programs that have a positive impact on people and communities, using music as a tool for connection, empathy, and social good.

Oh, and our name? “Caritas” is Latin for a special kind of love: sacrificial love, love for our neighbors, loving kindness, or what we like to call love in action.

Whether it's as an audience member, donor, or volunteer, we would love for you to be a part of what we do! Be in touch!
