Born in Hamilton, Ohio in 1942 as the second of two children, Benninger grew up in Gainesville, Florida, where his father was a Professor at the University of Florida. He studied urban planning at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and architecture at Harvard's Graduate School of Design, where he later taught (1969–72).
I feel the end is all about being a perpetual student, finding good teachers and walking starry-eyed under the continuous spell of curiosity.
There are generally two types of people in the world. One who need help and the other who have the ability to help. But in the meantime, there is a line of people working continuously and relentlessly to ensure that people who need help get help from those who can provide help. We are the line of intermediaries, who organize and coordinate a series of events and workshops to raise funds to help the less fortunate. One home foundation is a nonprofit organization that unifies the chepaang community to sustainably improve their health and wellbeing while building integrated settlements for earthquake victims. Donations from generous people will give our campaign a desired kick start. We need your charity to help those in need to change their future they never envisioned.
The proposed project shall be prefabricated Health Post building along with the supply of essential medical equipment as per government guidelines. The establishment will take place in Bharta in Makawanpur district, Nepal inhabited by the marginalized Chepang Community, which is one of the most remote and underserved communities in Nepal

My friends and families are always so keen to hear stories about the activities and my personal experience. Volunteering has helped me remain active and has created a great deal of satisfaction in my life.’’
‘’first of all, I would like to thank all the founding members of OHFN for allowing me the volunteering opportunity and remind you of the admirable job that you have been doing. Over the years, I have helped in building a safe shelter for many underprivileged people and victims of the earthquake by being a part of One Home Foundation. As a volunteer, I have met many wonderful and kind people who all have their own story to tell. I will never forget their kindness, their positivity, his humor and their incredible companionship.
