While an accomplished leader, Billy has always been an equally accomplished philanthropist. In 1986, Billy created the charitable organization that today is known as ASBA nationally.

Billy’s passion for serving lesser-known causes needing greater awareness leads to positive impacts and great strides towards hope and disease management, with the ultimate goal of a cure.
