BREAKING NEWS: Pickleball Superstar Ben Johns Donates $1 Million to Transform Home into Shelter for Homeless Youth

In a stunning and heartwarming act of generosity, world-renowned pickleball champion Ben Johns has announced a personal investment of $1 million to transform one of his private properties into a fully functioning shelter for homeless youth. The announcement, which broke earlier today, has sent waves of admiration across both the sports and philanthropic communities, highlighting Johns’ commitment to making a tangible difference off the court.

Johns, widely considered the face of professional pickleball and a dominant figure in the sport’s meteoric rise, has long used his platform to advocate for underserved communities. This latest initiative takes his mission to new heights. The property, located just outside his hometown, will undergo a full renovation to provide safe housing, educational resources, mentorship programs, and basic necessities for at-risk and homeless youth.

“I’ve been blessed with so much through the sport I love,” Johns said in a press release. “But the true win is using those blessings to help others. No child should ever wonder where they’ll sleep or if they’ll eat. This shelter is a step toward giving them safety, dignity, and hope.”

The facility, once completed, will include dorm-style rooms, study areas, fitness space, and a community kitchen. Johns is working alongside local non-profits, educators, and youth counselors to ensure the shelter is more than just a roof — it will be a place of growth, healing, and opportunity.

Sports personalities and fans have poured in support online, praising Johns for leading by example. “Ben isn’t just the GOAT in pickleball — he’s showing the world what real leadership looks like,” one fan wrote on social media.

Major League Pickleball (MLP) Commissioner Anne Worcester also expressed support, calling Johns’ donation “a moment of legacy beyond sport,” and pledged the league’s commitment to help expand the project through fundraising events and awareness campaigns.

Construction is expected to begin within the next few months, with an official ribbon-cutting ceremony targeted for early 2026.

As Johns continues to dominate on the court, it’s his powerful serve of compassion and humanity that may leave the most lasting impact of all.
