Pat Boone: One Voice for Tanzania & A Legacy of Compassion

Hitting the Billboard Charts—60 Years Apart!
Pat Boone first stormed the charts in the 1960s, and now he’s back with One Voice for Tanzania, a powerful collaborative anthem featuring country greats like Alabama, Vince Gill, Billy Dean, Lee Greenwood, Pam Tillis, and Wendy Moten. Pat shares the inspiration behind the song, its deep mission, and the extraordinary lineup that came together to make it happen.

Key Take-Aways
The conversation covers:

• The Shirley Boone Vegetable Garden (now a full farm!)

• Solar-powered wells drilling 500 feet for clean water

• Education for children who previously had no schools

• The touching involvement of the Legacy Mission Village Singers from Tanzania, who bring authentic, heart-stirring voices to the project

Faith in Action
Pat draws on Scripture, from Matthew 10:42 to the sobering “last exam” of Matthew 25, underscoring why this mission matters not just on earth, but eternally. “If you give even a cup of cold water… you will certainly not lose your reward,” he reminds us.

Behind the Collaboration
Modeled after We Are the World, this effort sprang from a partnership with WorldServe International and producer friends Jimmy Nichols and Frank Myers. Pat candidly shares the challenge of reaching big stars like Garth Brooks and Taylor Swift—and the joy of the artists who did join.
