Walter Levy Honors Legacy of Daughters with the Barbara Calick and Deborah Levy Scholarship Fund

10.30.23
Walter Levy, Julie & Ken Robinowitz are seated in a studio setting telling the story of establishing their fund.

Walter Levy, in a heartfelt tribute to his two oldest daughters, has established the Barbara Calick and Deborah Levy Scholarship Fund, named in their memory. He and his late wife, Helma, designed the fund to be as inclusive as possible, avoiding the common restrictions seen in many scholarship programs. Levy expresses a deep sense of gratitude for his own fortunate life and finds immense satisfaction in giving back through the scholarship fund.

The fund is not just a means of financial support for students, but also a way to honor his daughters’ memory, believing they would have been proud to see their names associated with helping deserving recipients. Levy emphasizes the importance of local involvement and passion in philanthropic efforts, noting the added significance it brings to his family. For him, the joy lies in knowing that the fund will continue to impact the lives of many qualified applicants, sustaining his family’s legacy for generations to come.
