Leslie Weed is a longtime Ponte Vedra Beach resident and the co-founder of HEAL (Helping Enrich Autistic Lives), a Ponte Vedra-based nonprofit that raises awareness of autism and provides grants to organizations, camps, programs and schools which serve those with Autism Spectrum Disorders in Northeast Florida. Leslie Weed

Can you briefly tell us about your background? I am a Florida native, born and raised in Vero Beach. I met my husband Bobby, a golf course architect, on a blind golf date set up by mutual friends at Amelia Island Plantation. We married a year later. At that time, Bobby worked for the PGA TOUR and we began our life to- gether in Ponte Vedra Beach. In 1988, I started a business in Ponte Vedra — Sawgrass Village and Amelia Island, “Suits Me Fine” swimwear and resort-wear shops — which I operated for 10 years. I taught Sunday School for 13 years at Christ Episcopal Church. Bobby and I raised our three daughters Haley (27), Carlisle (26) and Lanier (21) in the heart of Old Ponte Vedra. What inspired you to start the HEAL Foundation? My daughter Lanier is my inspiration for starting HEAL – Helping Enrich Autistic Lives. Lanier is nonver- bal/can’t speak and is profoundly affected by her autism. When Lanier was 18 months, she regressed into autism, losing language and motor skills, she stopped walking and talking. It was a very traumatic, frightening and challenging time for our entire family. Autism was rare in 2000, and many doctors, therapists and specialists were trying to figure out how to help us. I traveled the country extensively attending seminars and meeting special- ists in order to help my daughter. In the summertime, my daughters attended camps and had lists of activities to choose from, but there was nothing in our area for children with Autism. In 2004, I decided to fill that void and start a foundation that would provide educational and fun activities for children, teens and adults with autism living in our community. HEAL has an outstanding Board of Directors and we recently started a Jr Board of young professionals TEAM HEAL – Together Everyone Achieves More, they volunteer and raise funds for our programs.

Ponte Vedra Recorder · June 13, 2019 ON A MISSION 23 Beaches Community Fund makes $280K in grants

The Beaches Community Fund, an ini- tiative of The Community Foundation for Northeast Florida, will distribute more than $280,000 this year to local Beaches- area nonprofits to improve the lives of their fellow citizens who may be strug- gling. After just four years of grantmak- ing, the Beaches Community Fund has invested more than $988,000 in Beaches- area organizations that seek solutions on behalf of those who need assistance. The 30+ generous families who pool their charitable giving dollars to tackle community issues continue to focus on areas that research has shown to be the most pressing needs that can be influ- enced by thoughtful grantmaking. That includes transportation to jobs, food, medical care, essential services, early childhood literacy, development and helping Beaches nonprofits grow stronger and be more collaborative. This year, based on data as well as what was learned from previous grants, the Beaches Community Fund decided to add new priorities such as basic needs such as housing, shelter, medical care and healthy food. In addition, it will support for school-aged children, both in-school and afterschool, as well as disaster pre- paredness. “We are indeed fortunate that this Photo courtesy of The Beaches Community Fund dedicated cadre of Beaches families has Glenn Ullman and Lisa Landwirth Ullman committed themselves to improving the lives of all their neighbors along our the Mayport Road corridor TRANSPORTATION $10,500 Corporation (Pablo Hamlet & Pablo coastline,” said Joanne Cohen, VP, Phil- ■ We Care Jacksonville: $20,000 to Over the past several years, the Towers): $1,500 to assist residents with anthropic Services for The Community continue funding a Community Health Beaches Community Fund has invested transportation to medical appointments Foundation.
