Al Zobel
It’s hard to believe this will be our 4th Annual Gio’s Garden Classic! We wouldn’t have come this far without our very generous sponsors and golfers and auction donors. And we hope this year will be as successful as the last three! We have sponsorship opportunities available and are looking for auction donors.
Also, this year we are honoring a good friend of Gio’s Garden, Al Zobel. Al passed away in April 2013.
He was instrumental in helping us get our doors open as well as helped plan the past 3 golf outings. Al was an avid golfer who spent many hours on golf courses with Gio’s Dad, despite Ron’s inability to actually play the game.

Gio’s Garden currently serve 25 families. It is their “Home Away from Home” and we are so happy we can help these families struggling to get just a little break.
We do not charge the families for the therapeutic respite care service. One month at Gio’s Garden, 4 days of 4 hours each at Gio’s Garden costs us $160. Providing a year of service for one child costs just $1,920. These, of course, are just hourly numbers, as we aren’t factoring utilities, mortgage, employee healthcare…all the extra costs of running a small business that makes no profit.
Please join us as we try to help these families. Fill out the information below to golf. You can pay for your round or your foursome by hitting the donate button and paying through PayPal! It’s easy! If your company has a yearly outing or groups of you get together for outings, consider holding it at the 4th Annual Gio’s Garden Classic. This is a great opportunity for team building as well as a great excuse to get out of the office for a good cause.
Any groups that come with 2 or more foursomes will be discounted $100 per foursome.
Thank you, in advance, for all who help keep Gio’s Garden open for the special needs families we are now serving!
