Purpose
When Frank Wright was tragically killed during a robbery in May of 2009, his family and friends wanted to honor him by doing good things in his name.
The Frank Wright Memorial Fund was established in 2010 to support charities that help those in need. An annual golf outing, The Frank Wright Huckleberry Memorial, is held to celebrate Frank’s life and to raise money for the fund.

Community Cancer Research Foundation
Munster High School Band Department
Cystic Fibrosis Foundation
