Our Story
Throughout the course of our life’s we don’t often think about the positive impact our words and actions can have on others and how far they can go. For Patrick Kelley (Pat), at 30 years old, it took one moment in March of 2002 to end that opportunity for him. But in that moment, a whole series of events shifted, changing the social and cultural impact of Las Vegas and so many more places for years to come.
His passion, his generosity, his positivity, his personality, and his smile brought together the people he directly touched. It is in his honor that The Patrick Kelley Youth Foundation (PKYF) was born in Las Vegas.
