Help Benj Find His Light

Donation protected
On Thursday, April 7th, our friend Benj left rehearsal for an upcoming tour with a pain in his stomach. After a few hours of continued and increasing pain, he went to Wyckoff Hospital, near his home, and discovered he has pancreatitis, other compromised organs and an infection from an unknown source. He is still being stabilized there and has been referred to specialists at NYU and Columbia for testing. While Benj is surrounded by family, good friends, pictures of his animals and a weighted blanket, unfortunately, his insurance only covers a small portion of his hospital bills. Benj and his family are experiencing the mass costs of unexpected, ongoing, medical emergencies, so community, if it's possible for you, please consider donating to our sweet natured and energetic friend. Let's get Benj back on stage!
