"BE GREAT. DO GREAT THINGS." - Muhammad Ali, Athlete/Humanitarian/People's Champ The voice of Muhammad Ali was a voice that shook up the world. As an underserved youth growing up in poverty, Ali was able to use sports as a vehicle for his concern and advocacy to uplift underserved youth and the betterment of humanity. Working hand in hand with the Muhammad Ali estate, including with the Champ while he was still alive, SOVAS created the Muhammad Ali Voice of Humanity Honor, which is given each year to a global citizen who is making a difference for humanity. A portion of our annual budget goes to the Muhammad Ali Center to aid them in their work to uplift underserved youth. We live in interesting times, and the "voice" is becoming exceedingly essential as the ultimate medium through which we can channel and manifest love, understanding, and goodwill towards humanity and the planet. As experts who depend on our voices for our very livelihoods, we hold a unique opportunity, and duty, to use our voices to promote the best in our humanity - to have our legacies make a difference. The Society of Voice Arts and Sciences supports the art and craft of voice acting and the diverse ecosystem of media distributors, content creators, casting directors, talent agents, educators, voice directors, and technology providers that comprises the full spectrum of the industry. When you donate to SOVAS, your money goes directly to providing year-round public events, scholarships, job training, grants, education, job creation, mentoring, and access to global influencers who are making a difference in our industry and even on the world stage. The SOVAS community needs your help to build an ever-wider pathway to develop opportunities for the spoken word as an art form, business, career, and humanitarian influence - elevating the level of professional excellence, creating quality employment for actors and producers, and cultivating voices that will speak powerfully into the possibility of all we can be as individuals and community. Words matter. The extraordinary skill required to tell stories of clarity and purpose matters all the more. Thank you for your donation.
