Greater Milwaukee Foundation

Program Officer

Benjamin Porter grew up in Vermont and met my wife in Denver, spent my early 30s in South America, before putting down roots in Milwaukee. Benjamin does not distinguish between the values that drive his personal and professional life, which have centered upon social justice and beloved community. He has held professional roles developing service learning curriculum, working as a criminal defense investigator for the Colorado State Public Defender, running an economic development NGO in Paraguay, and advancing collective action towards health equity in Milwaukee amongst others.
