Helping Gods Babies Inc

We are dedicated to teaching golf to Autistic & Down syndrome children. We have authored, copyrighted & published on Amazon an "INSTRUCTORS MANUAL FOR TEACHING AUTISTIC & DOWN-SYNDROME" children. We recognize that as these children are living longer, once they reach adulthood there is nothing for them. Golf will provide tremendous social, physical & mental benefits for these children. \n\nThey are not seeking pity but understanding. Our course on "Training the Trainers" is the ONLY course that deals with the complexities of this population. We offer that benefit for those as they approach adulthood to become a contributing part of society.\nAs a result of our activity, we created videos for parents/guardians to teach their children how to swing a golf club. The videos are completed and will be marketed worldwide to the Autism & Down syndrome population.

We have aligned our organization with Gigi's playhouse on a local level. We are conducting a complimentary golf clinic to introduce children with Down syndrome to how to play golf. We recently purchased the inventory of a major junior golf supplier of equipment. We are negotiating with the Payne Stewart Foundation to direct their golf activities with new young children.\n\nWe are currently writing an "instructional manual" that will become the "bible" of instruction for all special needs children's organizations. We have been requested to do this by the American Society of Disabled Golfers. Our mission & website has garnered intensive interest and support Internationally. We are dedicated to " HELPING GODS BABIES"\n\nIn order to move our program forward, we concentrated on assembling children with down syndrome in SW Florida. We worked in conjunction with Gigi's playhouse a National Organization that works with Down syndrome families. With their cooperation, we created and conducted a very successful golf clinic. The children & parents were extremely happy about the opportunity. \nOur plan is to acquire a facility to enable us to function as an International Autism & Down syndrome Golf Academy. We have a number of interested parties that welcome and support projects for these "special needs" children.

Our rating with Guide Star adds to our credibility. Our level of donors escalates into the commercial sector from personal donations. Vendors in the golf industry are very aware of the issue of creating new golfers. HGB is one of the only, if not the only organization that is addressing this need. By creating new golfers in the Autism & Down syndrome population we not only help the economy but more than that, we create and add to the longer longevity in this population. \n\nThe question facing society is "what are these children going to do when they reach adulthood?" There is virtually nothing for them. Our program adds to the quality of life and with our job training element, we also create potential employment for them in the golf industry & restaurant business.\n\nAs a result of our efforts in the Autism & Down syndrome population, we have been invited to create a golf program for the Cape Coral Family Initiative. They are an Autism support group.\n\nOur staff & Advisory Board are professionals and well qualified in their respective disciplines.

Our staff is comprised of experts in the arena of working with "special needs children". We have a combined total of experience exceeding (100) years. I personally have been teaching golf for over (60) years. Mike Harbour has been teaching special needs children for over (30) years. Curie Cudmore our Staff Occupational Therapist worked with the UN in the Middle East & Unicef with this population. John Johnson has a Masters Degree in Speech Pathology that is an extremely important component of our mission. \n\nWe are without any doubts one of the most qualified instructional groups. We recently conducted a golf clinic for Austistic & Down-syndrome children. The turnout was far better than expected. We had (19) volunteers to participate in our video marketing program.\n\nWe have authored, copyrighted and published on Amazon an "Instructors Teaching Manual" for working with the Autistic & Down-syndrome population. We have also created a Certification Course which will enable volunteers to have the knowledge of Autism, Down-syndrome and most importantly the knowledge of our specific method of teaching golf. Our method is focused on visual teaching with much less oral lessons as these children learn visually. In our curriculum we point out to the aspiring teachers how to deal with "melt-downs" and "stimming". Most volunteers & golf instructors might not even know the meaning of these situations. Our program emphasizes "support and not sympathy".
