The Paul and Daisy Soros Fellowship for New Americans (for immigrants and children of immigrants) was granted to Vivek by a foundation created and endowed byGeorge Soros’ brother, Paul, and Paul's wife, Daisy.

 

Paul Soros died 20 years ago but, according to this, though liberal leaning,Paul did not share George's political activism:

 

Industrialist Paul Soros, brother of mogul George, dies at 87

 

16 June 2013

 

NEW YORK (AP) — Paul Soros, a successful innovator in shipping, philanthropist and the older brother of billionaire financier George Soros, died in New York City on Saturday after a long bout with a host of illnesses, said his son Peter Soros. He was 87.

 

Soros, an engineer and businessman, founded Soros Associates, a world leader in the design and development of bulk handling and port facilities. The company has operations in 91 countries. Soros also held a number of patents and wrote more than 100 technical articles on the transportation of materials and related shipping design issues.

 

His genius, which was really reflected in his work, was really a function of seeing what everyone was seeing and finding new ways to solve interesting problems,” said Peter Soros.

 

Soros also drew upon his own immigrant biography in establishing with his wife the Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowships for New Americans in 1997. The foundation’s $75 million endowment funds graduate education for immigrants and the children of immigrants.

 

Soros was born Paul Schwartz in Hungary in 1926. His father changed the family name to Soros a decade later, in response to growing anti-Semitism.

Soros was a talented athlete who skied for the Hungarian national team.

 

“He was quite a good athlete and very much the gentleman athlete,” said Peter Soros, noting his father broke his leg a number of times and lost a kidney in a skiing accident. “He had a competitive spirit.”

 

But an injury kept him from competing in the 1948 Olympics, his son said, and that same year, Soros immigrated to the U.S.

 

He won a scholarship to St. Lawrence University in northern New York in exchange for coaching the school’s ski team and later earned a graduate degree from the Polytechnic Institute of New York University in New York City.

 

“He was very elegant, very gentle, very astute,” said Peter Soros. “He was incredibly widely read, very up on all forms of history and, you know, a very good companion and a very good conversationalist.”

 

Soros met his wife, Daisy, who had also fled Hungary, at the International House in New York City. They married in 1951 and had two sons, Jeffrey and Peter.

 

Soros was four years older than his brother, George, and the two became very close upon arriving in the U.S.

 

Though his politics were progressive, Soros didnot sharehis younger brother’s political activism, Peter Soros said.

 

He was involved culturally, underwriting for years the Midsummer Night Swing at the Lincoln Center and supporting the New York Philharmonic and the Metropolitan Opera.

 

Soros is survived by his wife, brother, two sons, a daughter-in-law, four grandchildren and a step-granddaughter.

 

A memorial service was scheduled for June 27 [2013] at the Lincoln Center.

"Thereafter Soros and his wife, whom he had married in 1951, became philanthropists while also running an investment company and sitting on the board of his brother George's company, Quantum Industrial Holdings. Soros sponsored many events and became a patron of the New York Philharmonic and Metropolitan Opera, and a trustee and benefactor of Polytechnic University, which he praised for "giving the sons of janitors who possess a work ethic a chance to move into the middle class". He later served as a Special UN Ambassador to Morocco and Jordan."

 

"Viewed as a gentleman, Soros continued his sporting pursuits well into his eighties despite a number of serious injuries, including losing an eye in a golfing accident. In his memoir, which he entitled American (Con)quest, he wrote that after he had reached 65 his taxable income exceeded $100 million a year. His lifestyle, however, was not lavish. "I find conspicuous consumption in bad taste and something of an insult to people who have to work hard to make ends meet,"

"…15 clerks for Supreme Court Justices, presidential speechwriters, an ambassador, many inventors, amazing musicians, and the next Surgeon General of the U.S., if confirmed [2014]. The original ones who came on the Mayflower—did they do so much better than my Fellows?" - Daisy Soros

Sometimes described as "the invisible Soros", Paul Soros, who has died [in 2013] aged 87, was the older brother of the financier George, and a multimillionaire entrepreneur and philanthropist in his own right. An engineer, he devised profitable methods of shipping huge bulk cargoes in places too shallow for conventional docks. He claimed that the inspiration for a key component – the use of buoys – came from the floating pontoons on the Danube in his native Hungary.

 

In 1951, and living in the US, Soros joined the export department of Hewitt-Robins, a manufacturer of material-handling equipment, and he travelled extensively. He noticed that, compared with other major constructions, the capital cost of bulk port terminals used for shipping commodities, such as coal or iron-ore, varied widely. Soros concluded that the reason was a conflict between the skills of material handling and marine engineers.

 

During a trip to Chile, he met some Hungarians developing an iron-ore mine who had complained they could not afford the $4m expense of an offloading facility. They had joked to Soros: "Come back to us if you figure out a way to do it for $1m." He worked out a system whereby the capital cost of a pier could be saved by tying a ship to buoys and moving it in front of a fixed conveyor. The miners were interested, and Soros started his business from the playroom in his house.

 

Soros Associates is estimated to have been responsible for the design and engineering of ports and offshore terminals for bulk raw materials in more than 90 countries, extending the technology to permit loading in open seas and off shallow coasts, techniques particularly helpful for developing countries.

 

Two of his children died in infancy – his eldest son in a playground accident, and a daughter run over in his drive. He is survived by Daisy and two sons, Peter and Jeffrey.

 

Soros did not flaunt his wealth and said of himself: "I drifted into something I enjoyed doing and I was fortunate to have the opportunity to do it. ''My story is riches to rags to riches again. I was lucky to survive [wealthy Jewish family in Hungary, captured by Russians during WWII - accused of being an SS officer, harrowing escape…]. The rest was relatively easy."
