Although Andy had many talents, and pursued many activities, his
greatest joy was through music where he sang for the Grand Rapids Choir of Men
and Boys. His crowning achievement was becoming a head chorister and leading
the boys in the choir.
In honor of Andy and his talents, We Are For Children is working
to establish an endowed scholarship in Andy’s name at the Grand Rapids Choir of
Men and Boys. Since 1989, the choir has selected boys, recommended by school
music teachers. As members of the choir, boys are exposed to music theory,
performance skills, international conductors, travel and weekly practice
schedules.
With your help, we are hoping to raise at least $11,000.00, which
will allow for an endowment, adequate to provide one scholarship annually to a
boy who otherwise might not be able to participate.
