Invest in the Idea that Everyone Belongs

Donors play a critical role in delivering a more inclusive community through Special Olympics programs. No athlete, Unified partner, or their family is ever charged to participate on teams or individually in sports tournaments, leagues, recreational opportunities, or leadership training. Whether through direct gifts, peer to peer fundraisers, estate planning, bequests, or donor advised funds, Special Olympics Massachusetts is here to help you connect and invest in the lives of individuals with intellectual disabilities.

Donors like you are largest source of funding for Special Olympics Massachusetts. Your donation will go directly towards athlete uniforms, basketballs, medals, and other items that make participation in Special Olympics a reality. Beyond supporting the costs of competition for our athletes, your donation furthers a movement that is breaking down barriers and stereotypes; all while creating fuller, richer, healthier lives for people with intellectual disabilities. Thank you! 

This community has always been a big part of my life and I just wanted to do more for it and help out with all of the things Special Olympics does
