But Papiben’s success is not just limited to the modeling world. As Mister Global Canada, he has used his platform to raise awareness about the issues faced by First Nations and their culture. His dedication to making a positive impact has made him a sought-after speaker and ambassador for the Mister Global organization. He has also launched Visually Impactful, a non-profit organization dedicated to amplifying the voices of marginalized communities through the power of storytelling and visual art.
Papiben’s rise to fame has not gone unnoticed by his fans, who have shown their support through social media and real-life encounters.

Benjamin’s success is not just limited to modeling and pageants. He has also founded a non-profit organization called Visually Impactful. The organization is devoted to using the power of storytelling and visual art to create impactful and thought-provoking content that amplifies the voices of marginalized communities and draws attention to crucial social and political issues. The goal of Visually Impactful is to use the influence of storytelling and visual art to produce thought-provoking and impactful content that raises the voices of underrepresented groups. The organization also aims to bring attention to pressing social and political issues, motivating people and communities to take action and work toward a more just and equitable society.
As long as they share the importance of assisting underrepresented populations and producing relevant content, the organization will concentrate on offering assistance and resources to artists and producers from a range of backgrounds and media, including photographers, writers, videographers, and more.
The organization’s vision is to create a world where marginalized communities’ voices are heard and represented in mainstream media and society. In order to support artists’ efforts, Visually Impactful will conduct exhibitions, workshops, and other activities. Additionally, the group will offer tools like grants and mentorship programs to support artists in developing their careers.
Benjamin’s latest project for Visually Impactful is called “Playing hide and seek with light”. The photoshoot explores the relationship between mental health and self-awareness through the theme of self-discovery. By examining the complexities of seeking knowledge and understanding oneself, Papiben aims to raise awareness about the impact of this process on mental health. The philosophical concept of epistemology is also incorporated, as they question the true nature of reality and how our perception of it shapes our understanding of ourselves. The message they want to convey is the importance of self-aware
