Putt People First is a creative fundraising project at the miniature golf course at the far side of Southside Park. Funds raised are used to benefit autism work in Athens through HAVAR and conflict resolution work in Athens through the Athens Area Mediation Service.

HAVAR Incorporated is a private non-profit corporation operating in both Athens and Washington Counties in Ohio. Since its incorporation in 1972, Havar has provided community based supports to citizens with developmental disabilities.

The Athens Area Mediation Service is a nonprofit organization that provides the residents of Athens County with cooperative approaches to dispute resolution.  As such, AAMS is dedicated to promoting and supporting reconciliation, integrity, openness and inclusion. In addition, by training community members to serve as mediators and sharing these skills with others, AAMS empowers individuals and community groups to respond to conflict effectively.
