Meet Kennedy!




Everyone meet Kennedy!  Kennedy is a co-founder of Benevolenza Fundraising.  Kennedy is currently a freshman at Notre Dame University in South Bend, Indiana.  Knowing that, you can probably conclude that he is the brains of the bunch!  Kennedy plans to study business, he has not decided which field specifically yet, but he is leaning towards finance.  We know he will be successful in which ever field he chooses! Kennedy specializes in the finances and the logistics of our events.  Without him there would be no events!!!

Along with planning fundraisers Kennedy is also involved with many other service projects.  Last spring Kennedy went with a group of students from his high school, Gilmour Academy, to Honduras! Spending ten days down there
Kennedy and his group worked countless hours building houses and supporting the Honduran people.  The mission trip benefitted El Sociedad Amiogs de Los NiƱos.  Kennedy was so inspired by the work him and his group accomplished that he came back in the mood to give even more back to the organization. Kennedy decided to use his company to raise money for the charity Nuevo Paraiso.  Through his Honduras Campaign Kennedy was able to raise $35,786 for the charity.  Kennedy spearheaded this campaign, making it the first campaign that Benevolenza Fundraising put on! 



Kennedy is also known for his love for traveling. Kennedy has experienced: Ireland, Spain, Italy, France, Poland, Russia, China, North Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Bhutan, Peru, Brazil, Honduras, Mexico and Canada.  You can call him the extensive traveller!  
Fun fact about Kennedy!! Kennedy really enjoys hiking... I guess that comes in handy with all the traveling he does!
