A recent law and MBA graduate from Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School, Benjamin Spacapan has held positions with H.I.G. Capital and UBS Securities. Benjamin Spacapan is a cum laude graduate of Princeton University, where he received a degree in Near Eastern History, was nominated for the Quin Morton '36 Writing Seminar Prize, and volunteered with the Best Buddies Friendship program.
Active on college campuses in all 50 states, the Best Buddies program pairs students without intellectual or developmental disabilities (IDD) with fellow students or community members with IDD. Pairing people by geographic location as well as age and interests, the program encourages participants to communicate at least once a week by email, phone, or social media, as well as to spend one-on-one time in person at least twice a month.
Additionally, local Best Buddies offices plan various group meet-ups throughout the year. To ensure the continued success of matched pairs, Best Buddies keep in touch with program participants through intermittent check-ins.
