Stand By Me

Deforest Hancock, or as we call her Deedee, is a woman whose spirit is a grounding force of nature. Deedee empowers all of us at Voices with her soothing voice when she sings “Stand by Me.” She is an excellent communicator, bringing stability and strength to our organization. We are so grateful to have Deedee as a choir member of Voices of Our City!

“What I love most about myself is that I’m a woman of faith, I believe in myself. I believe in my purpose, which is to inspire others to unite and bring about prosperity and unity for all. We can do it together,” said Deedee.

This is what he says about his experience with VOICES:

“From the moment of being welcomed to rehearsal, Voices of Our City Choir has been a life-changing experience that has changed me forever. I am grateful to Steph and Nina, and the Voices family I have today. From the streets to a shelter to a home of my own, this is an ever-changing experience with this family of mine. I continue to practice what I have done from the beginning: music and love, building relationships, hope, and family. The Choir is more than it ever thought it would become. I love the Voices of Our City Choir, and I am a living example of their good works for the homeless of San Diego.” —Mark K

Congrats Ricky!

Today, we are doing a big shout out for our choir member Ricky who just got a new job! To say that it has been a struggle for each of us during the pandemic is an understatement. What we see in Ricky are determination and courage, and it is inspiring all of us at VOICES to keep moving forward!

Please join us in congratulating Ricky for stepping forward in such an empowering way.
