“Unarmed and without any provocation, jimmy mcgrath was senselessly murdered in a surprise attack by a 16-year-old athlete from another school. The teen murderer shockingly deemed it appropriate to use a lethal weapon, a knife, to mortally wound jimmy and stab three other unarmed teenagers, who thankfully survived. This mentalitythis total disregard for human life led to jimmy's murder is both a local and national problem. This mentality must be changed. Thus, the focal point of our mission is to assist our youth in promoting their mental and physical wellness, while instilling in them a profound appreciation for the value of a human life. At the time of his death, jimmy was a junior and star athlete at fairfield prep. But he was so much more. Jimmy was color-blind and was inclusive in all ways. You didn't have to be an all-star athlete to have his friendship and support. He was the anti-bully. He went out of his way to help other young people feel better about themselves and inspired many to improve their lives. Our foundation will support those charities, groups, and individuals who personify jimmy, his qualities, his ideals, and his life with an emphasis on promoting youth wellness and violence prevention. In sum, in his honor and memory, we will help those we feel jimmy would have helped.”
