Real quick: Have you taken advantage of our 3X matching gift offer during our annual Flash Match? Claim yours now to change 3X the athlete lives >>>

We’re SO excited about this Flash Match because it means every donation – every $15, $50, $500, whatever makes sense for you – is tripled and goes to work for three times the athletes with intellectual disabilities (ID)! Courageous and determined athletes like Josee, a champion powerlifter, who you see pictured below.

Josee, who has cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and a vision impairment, is a force to be reckoned with in the world of Special Olympics powerlifting. She has competed at World Games in both Abu Dhabi 2019 and just this summer in Berlin 2023 – and earned gold and silver medals in the process! Did I mention yet that she can deadlift over 300 pounds?! 

And Josee is a role model in her community, where her local powerlifting club has DOUBLED in size in the last year! “It means a lot…that they look up to me,” Josee says. “They send me videos of their lifts and I congratulate them.”

Our Flash Match will be over at midnight on Sunday, so don’t miss this expiring chance to TRIPLE your impact for athletes who still need their shot to get in the game. Give now and your donation will be MATCHED 3:1 >>>

Thank you – let’s make the MOST of this!
