Green2Green Foundation Logo "Impacting Lives One Swing at a Time"

Green2Green is a non-profit organization founded by a group of Wounded Soldiers, and Augusta, Georgia community leaders to honor and serve military Soldiers wounded in the line of duty.  These men and women have selflessly served the cause of our nation, protecting our safety, rights and freedom.  They return to us heroes!  We appreciate their astounding contribution and have created this program to give back to our heroes in a way that they will be honored and empowered.

 

 

What We Do

Green2Green offers services to assist our military heroes as they re-enter civilian life. Wherever they call home, our returning soldiers often return with more to overcome than physical wounds.  They often come back from war with psychological discomforts such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Traumatic Brain Injury, impacting their family life, social interactions, career aspirations and personal fulfillment.  A July 2010 news report states, “The rates of suicide among soldiers now eclipse the rates of suicide in the civilian world”.  It is our initiative to offer services that aid the transition from a life-changing experience of an active tour of duty in the armed forces to everyday civilian life.  We believe our heroes should be welcomed home not only by our gratitude but also with extensive support and training programs.  Green2Green offers the following programs

  • Weekly Golf Clinics
    Golf skills training as well as life application training
  • 1 on 1 Adaptive Golf Training
    Golf adaptive training for amputees and other wounded soldiers
  • Decision Reframing Process

  • Next Steps Program

  • Career and Financial Training & Support Individual transition assistance, Career assessment,interview skills, financial management skills, etc.

Why Golf?

The synergy of golf and life supports meld together to create a useful relief of transitional stress.  Golf relates to life on many levels and is an effective activity to be enjoyed as well as integrated into this training program.  Dean Carrigan, Nick Prokosa, Casey Johnson and Jason Ballard, bring their expertise of the golf game to help wounded service members skillfully learn and feel confident in their golf game.
