The Jeffrey Hayek Memorial Fund was established by Jeff’s parents, Brian and Robin Hayek, to honor the memory of their son who passed away from a clotting disorder in 2007 at the young age of 10.  Known for his enthusiasm for “all things baseball,” Jeff’s memory will live on through the fund by building Jeffrey’s baseball diamond and making other donations to benefit youth baseball in Frederick County.

Memorial funds are one of the many ways The Community Foundation of Frederick County transforms the unique charitable dreams of individuals, families and organizations into the reality of charitable funds supporting a range of worthy causes.  Over one-fourth of the funds held by the Community Foundation honor the memories of deceased loved ones by continuing to touch lives in meaningful ways in their names.  To date, the Community Foundation has provided more than $26 million in scholarships and grants throughout Frederick County.  For additional information about the Community Foundation or to donate to The Jeffrey Hayek Memorial Fund please click here or call at 301.695.7660.
