Chris Nikic, the first person with Down syndrome to finish an IRONMAN triathlon, helped us set a goal to raise $25,000 — so we can reach 1% more athletes across North America. (That’s nearly 500 athletes, JUST this month!)

And guess what? We’re just a few donations away from meeting this goal. Rush a donation before midnight to help us hit this goal and even MORE athletes can get off the sidelines!

As Chris said, getting 1% better may not seem like much. But 1% turns into 2%, which turns into 10% ... and soon, you’re making an ENORMOUS difference! 

That’s what your gift means when you donate to Special Olympics. Are you with us? Your support is crucial to giving Special Olympics athletes the opportunity to dream big, shine bright, and show the world what they’re made of:

Together, we’ll get more athletes off the sidelines.

Thanks so much,
Special Olympics
