Nine years ago the senseless death of one boy affected thousands. His mother’s grief turned into a desire to move forward in his name. A desire to help at least one teen be saved. A desire to help other mothers, fathers, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and friends to never feel what her family feels.
From that desire to help others, Patrick Lives On was established in April, 2016. In a short time, Patrick Lives On was an active non-profit helping teens. In the 8 years since Patrick Lives On began, the organization has helped hundreds of teens.
The 7th Annual Film Showcase & Fundraiser will make it possible for Patricia and Patrick Lives On to continue their mission. The fundraiser is also an exhilarating way to hang with local Chicagoland Film Industry professionals.
