In Memoriam

In Memoriam Cees Dros founder Benjamin Foundation.

Cees Dros, founder of our Benjamin Foundation born on the 2nd of July  1930, has passed away on the 29th of March 2012, reaching an age of 81 years.  During his life he preferred to be anonymous, both as a person and as founder of the Foundation.Jokingly he always said; “after my death everybody is allowed to know”. Unfortunately that time has come in 2012, which resulted that we took the decision to disclose his anonymity and give him the credits he deserves.
In “background” a short story about his life, the life of a special man, his aims, and the story and reasons about starting the Benjamin Foundation. Thanks to him we were already able to help many children to reach a be
tter future and many children will get that same chance in the future.
