Ben Higgins is known as ?the former Bachelor? or ?the reality star.? While both are true, he?s now using that audience ? and his 1.4 million Instagram followers ? to get eyes on a cause he?s been working with for 11 years. In 2007, Higgins took a trip to Honduras for disaster-relief work with his church based in Denver. While there, he was introduced to poverty-filled life that he?d never seen, and knew he had to do something.
