MOLINE, ILLINOIS (August 26, 2019) — The Adrianne Reynolds Fund honors the memory of an East Moline teenager whose life tragically ended in 2005. Adrianne began attending the Black Hawk College Outreach Center to earn her GED in November 2004. She was soon after killed in an act of violence by fellow teens in January 2005. Many generous donors locally and nationally contributed to the Adrianne Reynolds Fund, established by her parents, Tony and Joann Reynolds who live in East Moline.

A grant submission deadline for the Adrianne Reynold Fund has been announced by The Moline Foundation. The Moline Foundation invites grant submissions from non-profit (501-c-3) organizations in the Quad Cities region working with teens and young adults. Consideration will be given, but not limited to the following:

• GED coursework for teens and young adults

• Prevention or intervention of teen violence

• Counseling for troubled teens

• General help and assistance for adolescents

All materials necessary to receive funds are due in The Moline Foundation offices at 1601 River Drive, Suite 210, Moline, Illinois 61265 by 4PM on Friday, September 27, 2019 or must be postmarked by or on Friday, September 27, 2019. Any non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization in the region, including those who have never received funding from The Moline Foundation is welcome to apply.
