Kevin and Marina Krim, whose children Lulu and Leo were killed on October 25 in their 75th Street apartment, have set up a fund in honor of the children. The fund will help pay for underprivileged children to take arts and science classes, activities that the children enjoyed. From the site:
“As the parents of Lulu and Leo, we want to honor our children through carrying on their love of arts and sciences education. Our children have loved the many art and science programs in the cities in which we have lived, such as Lulu’s beloved “Art Afternoons” class at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Unfortunately, there are many children who do not have access to these programs. We created the Lulu & Leo Fund to help more children benefit from these education experiences in art and science.”
The family said in a statement that it wants privacy now, particularly for their 3-year-old daughter:
“As we go forward, we are focused on our 3-year-old daughter, Nessie. It is of the utmost importance to us that she is afforded the opportunity to grow up privately, like any other kid. We ask for your support in ensuring that we achieve this goal for our daughter.”

God bless them. God bless their incredible generosity.
My heart breaks for this family and their unimaginable loss. May this fund and continous support from the community bring them some comfort
