The Adrianne Reynolds Fund honors the memory of an East Moline teenager whose life tragically ended in murder by fellow teens in January, 2005.
In November, 2004, she began attending the Black Hawk College Outreach Center to earn her GED. Adrianne was killed in an act of violence, involving three other juveniles.
Many generous donors locally and throughout the United States have contributed to the Adrianne Reynolds’s Fund which was established by her parents, Tony and Joann Reynolds who live in East Moline.
