Jan. 26, 2023 – “In July of 2021, we lost our son Nic to a fentanyl poisoning,” Pagano said. Nic was a New Yorker who overdosed in Connecticut, where he’d moved for addiction treatment. Before he died, he told his parents he wanted to stay clean and become a social worker. Studies have shown that people in the LGBTQ community suffer higher rates of substance abuse, so Pagano used his music connections to plan a benefit concert to help people in the LGBTQ community pay for treatment.The money will go into a fund launched in Nic’s name with the help of the nonprofit Release Recovery Foundation.
