THE COREY DIAMOND MEMORIAL FUND was created in memory of Corey Diamond. Corey was killed July 23rd, 2006 while traveling as a passenger in a car. The car was hit by a U-Haul truck that ran a red light while being pursued by police. Corey was 16 years old, and had just completed his sophomore year at Buffalo Grove High School, Buffalo Grove, IL. His death made a significant impact on his family, friends, his school and the community. The fund exists to promote and support music, arts and community service programs as deemed appropriate by the Board of Trustees: Some of the previously funded programs include:
