Hi there --

We will keep this short but need your help. More than 200 donors have stepped up to make sure athletes have everything they need once they hit the field again. Will you be one?

Before June comes to a close, can we count on you? We know you can help make a big difference in someone’s life when you donate right now.

DONATE NOW

Thanks in advance,

Summer Athlete Fund Goal: $25,000
>> Chip in, TODAY! >>

Hi there,

Summer will not be quite the same for athletes this year. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected everything: athlete training, Summer Games and events, and the health and safety of people with intellectual disabilities (ID). But there’s good news.

We are starting to plan and prepare to safely get our athletes back on the field. Can you help us hit this important goal?

Chip in what you can today — $10, $20, or even $50 will change the lives of athletes. Help us reach our $25,000 goal:

I’LL GIVE $10
I’LL GIVE $20
I’LL GIVE $50
I’LL GIVE $75
I’LL GIVE $100

Our athletes have been struggling in isolation during COVID-19. Listen to Special Olympics New York athlete Billy S.: “I never realized how much [Special Olympics] meant to me until I couldn’t be with my coaches and teammates...my friends.” Special Olympics changes lives through the power of sports. That’s why when it’s safe to get on the field again, we want to come back stronger than ever! And with the help of people just like you, Friend, we accomplish so much more:

  • Making sure people with intellectual disabilities receive quality and equitable health care during the COVID-19 pandemic
  • Focusing on athlete fitness to stay healthy and improve their performance on and off the field
  • And fighting to end the discrimination that unfairly targets people with ID

And you’re so critical to every part of this work.

Help our athletes unleash their inner champion by supporting our Summer Athlete Fund to ensure athletes have everything they need to compete!

I WILL HELP

Athletes deserve ALL the support we can muster, and I KNOW that we’ll show them an outpouring of love! Thanks for being a part of it!
