Geneva National Foundation has been so generous to Studio 84. Several of our students attended the Life Empowerment Open that benefits individuals with special needs. Our students from Studio 84 created paintings while the golfers walked around and took off in their golf carts. The students had a chance to watch all of the carts take off, see their first sausage race, enjoy a nice lunch with great company, tour the building and also ride in the golf carts. This was really a life changing experience for our students and this is something they will talk about for a life time. Thank you so much for having us and I know our students are already asking to come back. Also, thank you for supporting Studio 84. We love our new ceramics equipment, everyone is getting great use out of it.

Geneva National Foundation has been a great help to Studio 84. As a small non profit that serves people with disabilities in the area of the arts it is a struggle as the arts and disabilities are often very underfunded areas in society and we have them both in one organization. The Foundation has been very generous and a joy to work with. Several of our students attended the Life Empowerment Open and did some painting, had a chance to meet some of the golfers and ride in the golf carts. They were so proud to show off their art skills.

The Geneva National Foundation (GNF) funded a fitness wheel for our special needs cheer & tumbling program. This piece of equipment has brought much fun and helps us develop safe skills training to our special athletes. It is a piece we could have not afforded without GNF, we are very grateful for their role in Walworth County and their support to the special needs community.

Every year, the Geneva National Foundation hosts the Lifelong Empowerment Open - a large golf outing that benefits individuals with special needs in the Walworth County Area. Having attended the event multiple times, I can honestly say there is truly something special happening with this organization. I have seen and met first-hand the individuals that benefit from the outpouring of monetary support kick started by the GN Foundation. It is both touching and inspiring to see the smiling faces of everyone who attends the event. Geneva National is not only a first-class golf resort, it is a community leader filled with kindness, compassion and good will.

The Geneva National Foundation has been turning disabilities into possibilities in Walworth County for the past ten years. The Foundation issues grants to those with special needs -- whether you are an individual, child or adult or an organization with a larger need. I have been blessed to be a part of this board for the past five years and to see all of the good we have brought to people's lives. If you would like to apply for a grant please visit www.genevanationalfoundation.org or email gnfoundation@gnresort.com.

Cheers to the Foundation and all they do for the people of Walworth County!

The 4th of July celebration at Geneva National was hands down the best in the area. The fireworks were amazing and the food was just as good as the fireworks. My kids loved it and can't wait to make the trip again next year. The Geneva National Foundation were the beneficiaries of this night which makes it all that much more worth it. See you next year and I'm bringing more families.

Since 2005, the Geneva National Foundation has been turning disabilities into possibilities in Walworth County. The Foundation issues grants to those with special needs -- whether you are an individual in need of a guide dog, wheelchair or therapy camp -- to larger organizations requiring support for a specific project -- such a playground equipment at Lakeland School, art equipment at Studio 84, technology enhancements at Inspiration Ministries, or weighted blankets for Mercy Autism Support Foundation. If you would like to apply for a grant, please visit www.genevanationalfoundation.org or email gnfoundation@gnresort.com.
