The Gilana Shira Alpert Fund was created in November 2007 as a memorial to Gilana Alpert. Gilana was an incredible woman, very passionate about the causes in which she believed, and a friend to all. Due to a reaction to prescription medications she passed away at the young age of 26. The fund has already raised almost $27,000 and is designed to continue the work that Gilana was not able to finish herself. Those causes include Holocaust awareness, theatre education and outreach, human equality advocacy, and sex education. Past recipients include The Kinsey Institute, Theatre for Young Audiences, The Shoah Remembrance Committee, and the Howard Brown Health Center. This year's recipients will be announced at the concert. More information can be found at www.gilanasfund.com
