“Ilir was well known in the community for his generosity and willingness to give back to everyone in need.”

Founded in 2024 in honor and memory of Ilir Banushi, the foundation continues his legacy of bringing people together and extending a hand to anyone in need. Every dollar raised goes directly back into our community through grants, scholarships, and grassroots events.

Red Out Fundraiser

The community showed up wearing red in memory of Ilir, raising over $18,000 for educational grants. Ilir's youngest son Brenon led Milton to victory — playing the game his father would have played on the opposite side decades before.
