You'll be inspired to step up!
 
 
 

Every year, Special Olympics holds tens of thousands of events around the world. Each competition is a joyous movement of athletes and others coming together to change the world, and it'll change your life to be a part of it!

There are many ways to help the Special Olympics community -- on and off the field. See how you can play a role:
 

Play with us
Our community doesn't just help those with ID hit the field -- we join them by playing unified.

Become an athlete yourself, or help get an athlete with ID involved.

Support healthy athletes
Our Healthy Athletes program provides screenings to athletes in 134 countries.

Use your health care training to help athletes get the care they need.

Give your time
We hold an average of nearly 300 events a day across the world -- and it only happens with a lot of support!

Volunteer your time to Special Olympics -- it could change your life.

Coach or referee
In the last 10 years, Special Olympics has doubled the number of athletes we serve.

Help get more athletes off the sidelines and step up to coach or officiate.

Thank you for being part of this community,

The Special Olympics team
