William Towns, Executive Director, Benefit Chicago

William Towns, Executive Director of Benefit Chicago, believes in the Baumhart Center.

"This initiative, I think, will be seen globally as an example for other institutions around the world to mimic and follow, and will, I think, have a tremendous impact. The more people that get involved, the better the city and the better the world will be."
