Our Founder, Patricia Frontain, lost her son to a senseless act of violence, took her grief and turned it into a powerful non-profit to help at-risk teens. PATRICK LIVES ON is a group of loving and determined citizens taking a stand in support of the safety of all school-age children in the Chicagoland area with funding for after-school programs.
PATRICK LIVES ON stands by its motto “BE STRONG. USE WORDS. NOT VIOLENCE.”
Patrick Lives On has been providing financial assistance to junior high school students for extra-curricular activities enabling them to lead positive and productive paths in life since 2016. We rely on the kindness of our donors to help at-risk teens.

LIGHT was created not only to honor Patrick, but also to help others grieve and move on after a devastating loss.
THE FOLLOWER focuses on domestic violence and abuse and how to break the cycle.
UNKNOWING was produced for young men who have already crossed over into gang life to help them realize that they were not born “bad.” They were manipulated into gang life and that it is never too late to turn your life around.
