About two years ago a group of Dr. Oaklander's colleagues as well as family members met to talk about forming a foundation that would carry on the work of Dr. Oaklander when she retires. Since she is presently 80 years old, retirement is a realistic assumption.
The founding members have met regularly and have turned out to be a hard working, dedicated group. The group has filed for non-profit status and on Sep. 9, 2005 the Violet Solomon Oaklander Foundation was officially launched.
