Ben Ayres Created Romance University To Help Women

The purpose of this project is to donate all proceeds to women’s charities. According to an Instagram Live with Kristoffer Polaha, this brainchild occurred when the two Hallmark hunks met up with Nikki DeLoach, Andrew Walker, and Michael Rady in Vancouver. They were all filming movies at that time.

Benjamin had made a logo inspired by Harvard University’s log. He replaced the name with “Hallmark University.” He made these into pins and at that dinner, he shared pins with his fellow thespians.
