Hi Friend,

There’s still time to send some encouragement with the Back-to-School E-Card! 

Many Special Olympics athletes are stepping into new classrooms, meeting new teachers, and taking on new challenges. A few words from you can help them feel supported, confident, and ready to shine.

Please take a moment now to sign the card and remind athletes they belong—just as they are.

Hi there,

Think back to your first day of school. New classrooms. New faces. New routines. It was exciting… but also a little nerve-wracking!

Many Special Olympics athletes are feeling those same butterflies right now as they head into a brand new school year. And that’s where you come in! 

👉 We’re inviting you to share the kind of advice or encouragement you wish someone had given you when you were a student. A simple message on our Back to School E-Card can help an athlete with intellectual disabilities (ID) walk into class with an entire community behind them. Sign the card now >>

“Everyone is unique and we should not hide it. We should take pride in who we are, not by our limitations!” – Jerry, Special Olympics Virginia athlete

Above, Special Olympics Virginia athlete Jerry captures exactly what we hope every athlete feels heading into the school year: pride, confidence, and the courage to be themselves. 

Your message, whether it’s advice, a favorite quote, or simply a few kind words, can remind athletes with ID that they belong, just as they are.
