Els for Autism is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established in 2009 by Liezl Els, Ernie Els, and Marvin R. Shanken. The driving force behind Els for Autism is the Els family's personal connection through their son, Ben, who is affected by autism spectrum disorder (ASD) which impacts 1 in 31 children in the United States.

Els for Autism is committed to providing innovative, evidence-based programs for families and individuals that reach across the lifespan. The organization serves families around the world, offering virtual services, and in-person programs and services at The Els Center of Excellence® campus in Jupiter, Florida.

Your generosity and compassion will make a significant impact on those affected by ASD. Together, we can make a difference by helping to create a world of limitless possibilities for individuals with autism and their families.
