The Lang and Hennessey families have established the Kara Anne Lang Memorial Scholarship, at Eastern Kentucky University. This endowed scholarship will be awarded annually to a junior or senior music education student who we hope will inspire children to love music as much as our Kara loved music. We have been fortunate to start this as an endowed scholarship, and have committed to annual giving for the next 16 years. The 16 years is significant because that is when Kara would have started college. Kathy and Tim plan on giving well beyond the 16 year mark to make sure the scholarship has a solid endowment to continue long after we have joined Kara in heaven.
We are asking family and friends who love Kara to consider donating towards her scholarship. Over the next several years those donations will make a big difference in a student's education and their future--in Kara's honor.
For those who may wish to donate to that effort, checks should be made to the EKU Foundation with Kara Anne Lang Memorial Scholarship written in the memo line. The mailing address is:
EKU Development Office
CPO 19A
521 Lancaster Avenue
Richmond, KY 40475
In case you were wondering...Eastern Kentucky was chosen because Kara’s father, Tim, her grandparents, Tom and Barbara Hennessey, great-grandparents, and other members of the family are Eastern Kentucky alumni.
