The votes are in! Our community has officially selected our favorite quote from our amazing founder, Eunice Kennedy Shriver (EKS)! 

Eunice’s powerful words ring as true today as the moment she first spoke them. And as much as this one woman opened up entire worlds of opportunity and community for people with intellectual disabilities (ID), we know how much work remains to build the world EKS envisioned.

For every courageous athlete with ID who has found Special Olympics, there are still 13 people who are waiting for their FIRST chance to get in the game, FIRST victory on the field, and FIRST moments to be leaders, teammates, and friends. Will you help power an upcoming YEAR OF FIRSTS for athletes with ID and carry on the compassionate legacy of Eunice Kennedy Shriver? Make a gift today >>

For the athletes, today and always,

the Special Olympics team
