To start an ongoing collaboration with the Foundation, the university has donated three violins to kids in Africa. Two of the violins are more than 100 years old. Professor Herzl, Head of the Violin Department, expressed his hope that music would touch the kids lives. Mark described the warm welcome in Kenya in an email. In Professor Herzl's reply he wrote:

I remember my famous teacher Sandor Vegh, who was invited to give
concerts in South Africa back then in the sixties. But he was so
concerned about the apartheid, that he insisted to play in the homelands
open air a string quartet by Bela Bartok. The people there were so
thankful and they danced to the rhythms of the music. Vegh always told
us this story with great excitement and was very moved by these
reactions.
