Since my daughter Heather Heyers death two weeks ago I have committed myself to making her death count.

That is why I am launching the Heather Heyer Foundation.

Heyer was killed in the white nationalist violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, earlier this month.

I was a bit skeptical.

What do you want a 60-year-old woman on your show for?

I didnt realize how many people were paying attention.

But now Ive realized this is bigger than Heather, this is bigger than me.

The Foundation has established a scholarship program to provide financial assistance to individuals passionate about positive social change.

I want to make her death count, Bro told PEOPLE.

Were not going to waste this.

I would never give up my child willingly.

If she had to die, at least were going to serve a purpose with it.
