Special Olympics athletes work hard to overcome the odds, and they can do it — with
your help. They deserve the chance to compete, the chance to grow and the chance to lead
both on and off the playing field. Give them that chance and you'll find it will be an
incredibly rewarding experience for you, too.
As a Special Olympics volunteer, you'll not only be giving back to the community, you will
be changing lives forever — including your own.
