Rallying for Ben: A Community Effort to Rebuild After Tragedy

At The CIL, we are grateful to have incredible partners and volunteers who dedicate their time and skills to improving the lives of others. Ben, one of our longtime volunteer contractors, is one of those people who has always gone above and beyond for our consumers. He has been a huge asset to both CIL and the wider community, providing not only wheelchair ramp repairs and installations but also offering his help with many other home modification services to those in need. Ben has always provided more than just his skills—he’s brought compassion, kindness, and unwavering support to our community.

Now, it’s our turn to give back to Ben.

During Hurricane Helene, Ben and his family sought shelter with loved ones after losing power. Tragically, when they returned, they discovered that a fire had destroyed their home, taking everything from them—including their beloved pets.

This loss is unimaginable. Ben has been there for us and countless others in our community—let’s show him the same generosity he’s shown us. Please consider donating to the GoFundMe created to help Ben and his family rebuild their lives after this devastating event.

Let’s come together as a community and lift Ben up, just as he’s done for so many of us. ##CommunityStrong #CILFamily #HurricaneHelene

Thank you, from all of us at The CIL. 🙏
