Eric had an amazing passion and a matching talent for music. He and a close friend had started a hip-hop band called Mic Dynamics (click to listen). Before Eric's death they had performed in two shows and had a CD on the way. They had made a great start. Eric lived and breathed his music, and so, in honor of Eric's love for music, Passion in Music was born.

Passion in Music is a scholarship-based non-profit organization. Yearly, PIM gives scholarships to Los Gatos High School students who have the same active passion for music that Eric did -- a strong passion in a non-traditional sense.

As of yet, we've been able to award one scholarship in 2003. In the future, we hope to expand to be able to to distribute more than one scholarship per year, and to not only Los Gatos High School students, but to students all over Santa Clara County.

If you would like an application for this scholarship, please contact us and we'd be happy to send you the application packet.
