Inspired by Special Olympics athletes, longtime volunteer Jura Greely ran the 2025 Boston 5K, proving that passion, persistence, and community can take you across any finish line.

Rachel Lindberg is running the Boston 5K, but that’s just one of the many ways she supports Special Olympics MA. Alongside her dad, Chuck, Rachel champions inclusion through racing, coaching, and volunteering.

When their Polar Plunge plan fell through, two St. John’s juniors organized a dress down day, raising $1,800 for Special Olympics MA—showing that real leadership means adapting and making an impact.
