Do good. Feel good.
Shower singers, it’s time to shine.
www.singforgood.org
Sing for Good aims to get communities singing for joy in every postcode of Australia and beyond. Let’s have fun, feel good and make a difference to people in need!
1. Sing with a group (two or more)
2. Enter your video
3. Vote, donate + celebrate
Sing for Good is not a talent show. It’s all about fun and inspiration. Families, workplaces, schools, sports teams, choirs … everyone is welcome!
There are heaps of categories for all these groups and more, plus cash prizes for schools.
Winners are announced at the With One BIG Voice Concert (8 November, Melbourne Town Hall) and selected videos screen at Federation Square.
Donations raised help people in need through Creativity Australia’s inclusive With One Voice program, which builds supportive communities through song in three states. Other charities/non-profits are invited to use this project as a joint fundraising platform to support their causes.
Swinburne University research showed 98% of With One Voice choir participants experienced less stress, 91% improved social bonds and 66% feel less depressed. The program has also been named in Anthill’s SMART 100 social innovations in 2015, 2014 and 2013.
With One Voice welcomes people aged 9 to 90, from all cultures and backgrounds. Through the Wish List, diverse people grant each other wishes like music lessons, language tuition and jobs.
Did you know neuroscience proves singing makes us happier, healthier, smarter and more creative?
There are a lot of lonely people in our communities. Their isolation leads to anxiety and depression, unemployment and so much more.
With One Voice empowers people to care for one another, instead of relying on top-down, siloed social welfare services.
You too can help turn lives around. Join the fun of Sing for Good.
"Without a doubt the best conference in Australia with a delightful mix of creativity and big thinking bringing together an eclectic group of industry, community and education leaders. Once again, I’ve come away enthused by new ideas, more aware of future trends, and heartened by the kindness of humanity. We all have a role to play and it should be a collective one." Kerry Anderson, Founder of Operation Next Gen
"Conferences are boring. Creative Innovation is more like a rodeo for ideas, and you are guaranteed to leave wanting to make the world better for everyone." Andrew Despi, A.kin
"Kudos to Tania for organising the the 2019 CI Conference in Melbourne - it is the best I have attended so far. All the speakers and sessions were very well-planned. I have attended many conferences and this is the first I did not have the 'luxury' to skip any sessions. Your effort in this space has truly made Melbourne a global innovation and entrepreneurship hub." Danny Ong, Deakin University
"I wanted to pass along how incredible I thought Creative Innovation was and how much your passion for life and for humanity was inspiring to all of us. It was a privilege to be included and one that I am very grateful for." John Pickering, Chief Behavioural Scientist
"Creative Innovation is a transformational platform built by changemakers for changemakers. It is an educational adventure showcasing the forefront of ideas internationally." Melissa Warner, Ci2019 Scholarship Winner & Education Officer, Mind Medicine Australia
"Creative Innovation 2019 was one of the most well-organised events I’ve ever taken part in. From beginning to the end, every detail had been planned through and taken care of. Secondly, are the production values. As a result, it was possible to attend all the sessions without suffering conference burn-out, happy in the knowledge that the next piece of content was guaranteed to delight and challenge the senses." Richard Claydon (Singapore)
