As his life was mourned, tales of Ben's compassion, generosity and kindness were shared in tribute.

It became clear that supporting others was an innate part of Ben's identity. It was said by all that Ben's greatest love was 'making people happy'.

The Benjamin B. Wills III Charitable Foundation was formed to honor his passing and continue Ben's kindness. Through the generous support of family and friends, the Benjamin B. Wills III Charitable Foundation will dedicate resources to non-profits and charitable causes that meet the core tenets of Ben's beliefs: COMMUNITY, EMPATHY, OPPORTUNITY.

The Three Pillars

Community

Opportunity

Community

Ben was committed to making everyone feel included and appreciated. He built community everywhere he went.

COMMUNITY

Empathy

Opportunity

Community

Caring about others was not an option for Ben. "Whether a shoulder to cry on, lending an ear, or someone to keep you company; Ben was there."

EMPATHY

Opportunity

Ben recognized that not everyone was as fortunate as he was to have access to resources and support to pursue any opportunity. He wanted others to have a chance to be their best.
