About ELIJA Foundation:
ELIJA (Empowering Long Island's Journey through Autism) is excited to be hosting our 18th Annual Sy Schwartz Golf Outing on Monday, June 2nd, at the amazing Brookville Country Club, Brookville, Long Island, honoring Craig Carton, renowned sports radio and television personality, 2024 New York State Broadcasting Hall of fame inductee, current host of Breakfast Ball on FS1, and Hello, My Name is Craig on WFAN.
Proceeds from this annual event go directly to improve the lives of the 1 in 36 children being diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), which today is more common than pediatric cancer, diabetes, and AIDS combined.
While there is no prevention or cure for Autism, research indicates that the appropriate support can result in significant improvements and outcomes for those affected. We at ELIJA work tirelessly to improve outcomes by offering our learners a personalized and quality education, focused on developing communication, social and cognitive skills.
The ELIJA Foundation, a not-for-profit, 501c (3) organization, has been serving parents, educators, professionals, and caregivers of children with an ASD since 2002. The ELIJA Foundation provides the community with educational opportunities that focus on improving the quality of programs and services available to children with Autism. In 2006, The ELIJA School opened its doors to extend the mission of the Foundation and start helping children with Autism. In 2016 we expanded programming to support our young learners as they transition into adulthood.
ELIJA's focus is to empower individuals and families living with an ASD throughout their lives. We believe in hope and hard work; that all children (or adults) with an ASD deserve a chance, and their families deserve our commitment, expertise and support!
Special thanks to the 2025 Golf Outing Committee and Co-Chairs, Caryn Beyer and Tracy Meehan!
