While they didn’t win the $1-million on America’s Got Talent, the Ndlovu Youth choir still took home a large paycheque. The choir was presented with a R1-million cheque from the Limpopo MEC for Arts and Culture, Thandi Moraka, earlier this week to celebrate their incredible international performances.
The choir were gifted the cheque at a homecoming celebration hosted by the MEC at the Ndlovu Care Group Miracle Centre following their finals performance at America’s Got Talent.
The R1-million will be split – 500k for the choristers and 500k to develop their music program the choir announced via their Twitter page.
