In lieu of flowers, the family has established an endowment fund at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, one of Malaika’s favorite institutions.  The goal is to raise $2,500 to endow a chair in the Oprah house on the mezzanine level that will have a plaque that bears her name.  More importantly, the endowment helps BAM to continue bringing world class performance art to the people of Brooklyn. Please send any donations to:

Brooklyn Academy of Music
