Fundraiser for Patrick's Wheelchair Van

Bullying is an important issue that affects many of our children today and for one young boy, Patrick MacNamara, being a victim of bullying turned his life upside down. On October 6th, 2013, when Patrick was only 13 years old, he suffered an acquired brain injury (A.B.I.) as a direct result of being bullied, leaving him paralyzed and confined to the constant use of a wheelchair. Patrick has come a long way over the last 6 years but the lack of walking, talking or being able to use his arms has taken a toll on his body and his family.

This fundraiser is raising money to help purchase a wheelchair accessible van for him and his 3 siblings, so that they will be able to do the one thing they have not been able to do for the last 6 years, a family outing all together!
