There are always doctors
and nurses on call at the Uni-
versity Hospital, but a new
group of singers on campus
say they're now on call too.
Members of Angels on Call,
an a cappella group founded
this year, perform at private
and public events to raise
money for various charities.
one hundred percent of the
group's proceeds go to one or
two charities that the group's
membersvote on at the begin-
ning of the year, according to
LSA freshman Sophia Park,
co-president and co-founder
of the organization.
The philanthropic aspect
of the organization, together
with Park's love of singing,
led to her desire to create the
group.
"Combining something
that I really like to do and
having it go toward really
good causes ... that combina-
tion is just really special, and I
really enjoy doing that," Park
said.
The group's mission and
name are based on the impor-
tance of bettering the lives of
sick individuals, Park said.
"We definitely wanted
something to do with patients
because those are people who
need ... the most cheeringup,"
she said.
The group has held several
concerts and has also caroled
in Detroit during the holi-
Members of Angels on Call perform a cappella performances through-
out the year. One hundred percent of their profits are given to charity.

days, Park said, adding that
the group will soon be per-
forming at nursing homes and
hospitals like C.S. Mott Chil-
dren's and Women's Hospital.
Park said she enjoys sing-
ing for patients because it
helps joy spread when they
may be going through a diffi-
cult time.
"They're happier when
they hear us sing," Park said.
Because the co-ed group
was created this year, it con-
sists mainly of freshmen, but
has several sophomores as
well, Park said. She addedthat
auditions are ongoing and the
group is looking for more
members.
