Be a Fan of Generosity

Special Olympics Pennsylvania (SOPA) offers all its training and competition opportunities free of charge to its athletes and families. The organization operates one of the largest programs in the US with more than 20,000 athletes and 40,000 volunteers.

All athletes are able to participate free of charge thanks to the generosity of our supporters. Contributions are needed to offer athletic, developmental, health and social opportunities.

When you help an athlete, everyone wins.  Special Olympics programs help athletes do better at school, home, work and in the community.  Athletes develop their self-esteem to overcome a variety of life's challenges.

In addition, Special Olympics is addressing critical service gaps through new initiatives.  For example, the Healthy Athletes Initiative offers free eye, ear, podiatry, and dental screening at major events.  Over half of the athletes receiving eye exams are given their first pair of prescription glasses.

That is what you are supporting when you become a sponsor of Special Olympics Pennsylvania.  And it's everywhere -- in every county across the state there are athletes training and volunteers ensuring that everyone who wants to participate is given that opportunity.

Contributing to Special Olympics is the ultimate gift that gives back to you.  For every dollar and for every hour that you donate to Special Olympics, the rewards and gratitude of helping our athletes reach new goals will far outweigh your contribution.  Once you become a part of our movement, you will be a member for life.   Be a Fan, donate now!
