Loneliness. It's something we never want a Special Olympics athlete to face, Friend ... but the truth is that for many people with intellectual disabilities (ID), a life full of joy and connection can be hard to come by.

That's why we're so happy to tell you this: Special Olympics was created to ensure that all people with ID can have a life full of love, joy, community, and connection. 

A recent study from Ontario Tech University showed that Special Olympics participants with ID were nearly 50% less likely to develop depression when compared to non-participants.

And the only way we can keep going strong is with YOUR support. Make your very first gift of $25, $50, or even $100  tothe Spring Athlete Fund today, and we will help RUSH your gift to help fund Special Olympics events inyour community and around the world >> [link removed]
