The Amaya Family would like to extend their thanks for all the warm wishes they have received over the past few days. The family has set up a program to honor Nori and to help stop violent attacks on women in the local community.
As many of you know, her brother Carlos is an active member of the Hung Tao Chow Mei Kung Fu Academy. He has taught self defense classes to groups of women in the DC area and the family would like to continue the program in the name of their beloved family member.
So the family asks that in lieu of flowers, you make a contribution to The Nori Amaya Foundation. Proceeds would help fund the self defense classes, help cover funeral costs, and other future endeavors all in the name of Nori. Also, Nori spent some time last summer volunteering to help a small impoverished village in Guyana and the family would like to help continue Nori's hard work by sending needed funds to the village, but also continue doing what Nori did best ; helping those in need.
This is at its earliest stage, but the Amaya family is eager to get this started. A paypal account will created, as well as a direct checking account. So for now, if you would like to contribute to The Nori Amaya Foundation, please send any donation directly to Coppi's and please make any checks directly out to:
Carlos Amaya
Coppi's Organic Restaurant
1414 U Street, NW
Washington, DC 20009
But the Coppi's family would enjoy it even more if you preferred to swing by Coppi's with a donation. There has been a constant flow of Nori's friends coming by Coppi's just to share warm wishes, and even better, touching stories. It's been a horrible few days but the wonderful stories have really helped us all deal with the passing of our dear friend.
