Support Corey Ray's Road to Recovery

On the afternoon of Monday, June 16, 2025, life changed in an instant for Corey Ray, a kind-hearted, funny, and deeply genuine 23-year-old young man beloved by everyone who knows him.

While making a quick and unexpected stop at Dunkin Donuts in Woodstock, GA to retrieve his lost motorcycle keys, Corey was in his sister’s car, preparing to make a right-hand turn, when tragedy struck. While waiting at a stop, Corey’s vehicle was violently hit by an oncoming car traveling at a high rate of speed. The other vehicle—reportedly driving erratically—made no attempt to stop. The impact pinned Corey’s vehicle between the oncoming car and a retaining wall.

Tragically, the driver and passenger of the other vehicle lost their lives in the accident. Our hearts go out to their families, and we ask that you keep them in your thoughts and prayers during this devastating time.

Corey survived the crash but remains in critical condition at Kennestone Hospital in Marietta, GA. He has suffered multiple traumatic injuries, including internal bleeding and a fractured pelvis. The road to recovery will be long and difficult, involving extensive rehabilitation, physical therapy, and ongoing medical treatment.

Corey recently took a big step forward in life—moving into a new apartment with Grayson, his girlfriend and best friend. As he now faces weeks, if not months, of recovery and healing, Corey and Grayson will need help covering everyday living expenses, rent, and mounting medical costs. The financial toll of such a sudden and severe accident is overwhelming.

Anyone who knows Corey knows that he is one of the most thoughtful, compassionate, and selfless people you could meet. He is always the first to offer a helping hand or a kind word, and he lights up every room with his positivity and humor. Corey lives his life thinking about how he can make others smile—and now, he needs our help.
