A Very Special Year of Ben’s Scholarships
What an incredible, unforgettable day celebrating Ben’s senior class—the Class of 2025—at Blackhawk’s Senior Awards Ceremony! Ben’s Foundation was honored to award every single graduating senior at Blackhawk High School a $1,000 scholarship in memory of their classmate, Ben Banks.
This scholarship project was a huge secret project we quietly pouring our hearts into for the last five years. The Blackhawk community has been our anchor through their unwavering support, friendship, and generosity. Honestly, we couldn’t have navigated these past eight years without the love of this community. Thank you for remembering Ben with us. Forever in our hearts.
Forever in our hearts.
