Ben Hennington for King
Thank you for being a part of the inaugural King & Queen Campaign to benefit the animals of the Florida Keys SPCA. Learn about how you can support the animals of the Florida Keys SPCA through Ben for King's Campaign below!
Meet Ben Hennington:
Ben Hennington is not new to raising money for the community.
He is the founder of the Sunset Social Drinking Club (SSDC), Wienerpalooza and co-founder of POSH (Paws Often Steal Hearts), which all champion the welfare of shelter animals and finding forever homes for our furry friends. Ben is a Key West transplant displaced by Hurricane Katrina and spent over 2 decades living in the lower Garden District & Bayou St. John in New Orleans.
Ben is an avid Key West socialite and in his spare time leading the SSDC, his hobby, which is a charitable organization that gives back as much as possible to the community that they are a part of. To date, the SSDC has helped raise over $150K for the FKSPCA and over $300K in total for other local charities.
When Ben is not actively volunteering & assisting in community endeavors and business aspirations, you can find Ben in his “office” in the back room of Shots & Giggles working on a project.
Ben has a residence in both of his favorite cities, claiming dual citizenship. He is living, not dreaming his best life.
