Memorial fund for Hunting Park teen who drowned

HUNTING PARK (WPVI) -- The family of a Hunting Park teenager who drowned in Ocean City, New Jersey asking for help raising the money for his burial.

Corinthian Hammond was with a group of friends when he was swept into the water on June 29th.

A few days later, a boater discovered the 14-year-old's body just south of the Ocean City-Longport Bridge.

His family plans to hold a memorial for him Monday at the Grover School, located at 21 East Olney Street at 7:00 p.m. That's where Hammond recently finished middle school.

They have also set up a memorial fund to raise money for a funeral service.

Anyone interested in making a donation can make a contribution to the Corinthian Memorial Fund at any Bank of America, using the account #383011740791.
