The Patrick4 Life education program helps teach students about making healthy life-style choices, as well as learning about HIV and AIDS awareness.

The major fund raiser for this program is the Patrick4Life Family Run Walk, which will take place this year on June 5th.

Chairperson Dave Saad says they have something that has become a legacy to Patrick Fortin.

He says they hope it is something that can grow beyond North Bay’s borders.

Fortin passed away after contracting the AIDS virus through tainted blood.

The run/walk will feature four different events including a half marathon, 10k, 5k and 2k runs.
