Ice Bucket Challenge Co-Founder Corey Griffin, 27, Drowns In Accident
How very sad. Corey Griffin, a young man who helped propel the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge into what it is today, died on Aug. 16.
Corey Griffin passed away in a Nantucket, Mass. diving accident just hours after he left a fundraiser where he reportedly raised $100,000 for ALS research. He was only 27 years old.
