HOW THE FUND WAS FOUNDED
"Anil was a very generous and kind man," Anil's
widow, Po recalls. "It was his idea. I just tried to
carry it out." And that is exactly what she did. Within
weeks after the tragedy, Po investigated area organizations,
whose mission most closely matched Anil's dream.
She established her husband's memorial fund to
benefit the Young Artist Program of Westminster Conservatory of
Music.
With the help
of a Westminster Conservatory volunteer, Po sent
information about this memorial fund to friends and family
all over the world. She requested that gifts be sent to
the Westminster Conservatory in lieu of flowers or other
gifts.
Gifts have come via check and wire from
all over the world, including Singapore, Japan, England,
Bangkok, Hong Kong, Germany and many places throughout
the United States.
