Hey there!

When Harrison Mendrala joined the Special Olympics movement at just 12 years old, he never imagined he’d still be involved 10 years later as a coach. But as so many of us know, being a part of Special Olympics feels like joining a tight-knit village. The sense of community and belonging – and the rockstar athletes – is why millions of athletes, coaches, and volunteers return year after year. 

As a proud powerlifting coach, every training session is a full-circle moment for Harrison. Watching an athlete with intellectual disabilities (ID) push their limits and build their confidence and character every day is why we’re here. And high-quality and inclusive training and competition equipment is what makes it ALL possible!

That’s why we’re asking you to contribute to our 2025 Equipment Drive. We’re raising $50,000 to support athletes with ID and we need your help! The best part is that our friends at Topgolf are 2X matching every gift until MIDNIGHT tomorrow (up to $50,000), doubling your impact!

For Special Olympics athletes, proper equipment makes all the difference. When they can depend on free, accessible and high-quality equipment in the gym or during a meet, it is a true game-changer and helps athletes compete at the top levels. So let’s make sure athletes and coaches like Harrison have everything they need to excel: 

Make a massive difference right now during our 2025 Equipment Drive! Help reach our $50,000 goal by tomorrow night and see your donation of any amount MATCHED 2X to help more athletes become CHAMPS!
