Els for Autism is devoted to helping children and adults with autism and their families have a better life. Our purpose is to help people with autism of all abilities reach their fullest potential and live meaningful, fulfilling lives, while supporting the caregivers who walk alongside them. Els for Autism was established in 2009 by Former World No. 1, World Golf Hall of Famer, and four-time Major Champion Ernie Els, his wife Liezl, and Publisher and Founder of M. Shanken Communications Marvin R. Shanken. The Els’ son, Ben, is impacted by autism, and their personal journey inspired a lifelong commitment to creating better outcomes and brighter futures for individuals with autism.  

Nourishing Food For Thought is a nonprofit working teaching farm where children, families, and community members learn by doing. Through hands-on experiences with dairy cows, chickens, gardens, composting, regenerative agriculture, and traditional food preparation, visitors gain a deeper understanding of where their food comes from and how healthy ecosystems support healthy people. Every program is designed to encourage curiosity, practical life skills, and meaningful connections with the land, animals, and one another.

Beyond farming, our mission is to improve community well-being by promoting nutrient-dense foods, outdoor activity, and screen-free experiences that foster physical, mental, and social health. By reconnecting people with nature, real food, and the agricultural traditions that sustain us, we help cultivate healthier families, stronger communities, and a greater appreciation for the stewardship of our shared environment.

Your support helps preserve one of Palm Beach County's few remaining working educational farms, ensuring future generations have a place to experience agriculture firsthand, understand where their food comes from, and inspire the farmers, stewards, and informed consumers of tomorrow.
