Benjamin was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia just two weeks after his 13th birthday. Throughout his nine-month battle, he remained hopeful and determined to beat cancer. Benjamin dreamed of a bright future, prayed that his loved ones would never endure the pain, fear, and suffering he faced, and shared his hopes with those around him. He will always be remembered for his thoughtfulness, love, humor, and wisdom beyond his years. His passing on December 6, 2012, left an unfillable void in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.

​

While cancer took his life, it could not extinguish his dreams for the future. Our organization is dedicated to honoring Benjamin’s legacy by raising awareness and funding innovative treatments in the hope of finding a cure for pediatric cancer.   OUR CHILDREN DESERVE A FUTURE!
