Fundraising Campaign: Donation Match Week

Online

The COVID-19 pandemic has made the last few years challenging for everyone. We’ve all had to adapt to a new normal, filled with so many uncertainties.

For Special Olympics Florida athletes, they’ve experienced the familiar feeling of isolation and the fear of being at greater risk for COVID-19. It’s been an incredibly tough time for athletes and their families. That’s why we’re determined to make 2022 our strongest and brightest year yet for athletes –– and we need your support to make this possible.

Donate to our 2022 Fund to help Special Olympics teams in Florida and beyond have the best year ever –– with all the equipment and support they need to play, compete, and win. Your gift means everything to athletes!  Give now and your donation will be doubled to make an even greater impact.
