The Dorthaan Kirk Opportunity Fund

The purpose of the Fund is to provide scholarships to students in high school and college from the greater Newark area, who have insufficient financial resources, and have a sincere interest in a future career as a jazz performer, writer, promoter, manager, broadcast professional, attending musical workshops or participating in any other musical event or profession that keeps America’s true art form of jazz alive and thriving in our communities and around the world.
