Special Olympics
To our Special Olympics Family,
We hope this email finds you well during these unprecedented times. Whether you are an athlete, coach, parent, volunteer, supporter, or friend of Special Olympics, we are keeping you in our thoughts.
Today we are doing everything we can to be proactive in protecting our athletes, volunteers, coaches, and the entire Special Olympics community from COVID-19. To help facilitate social distancing and prioritize the health and safety of our community, upcoming events may be postponed in your area. Please check directly with your local program website for up-to-date information.
These are challenging times and we want you to remain informed, healthy, and hopeful. Here are some ways to be engaged with us:
Stay Safe: Washing your hands properly is one way to stay safe. Watch this video featuring Special Olympics Zimbabwe athlete and Health Messenger Nyasha Derere.
Stay Active: Special Olympics has developed fitness tools to keep our athletes healthy and you can join in the fun at home! Check out Fit 5 and our newly launched, School of Strength.
Stay Connected: Follow Special Olympics on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter to stay up to date on the latest and for opportunities to interact with our athletes and community. We’ll be adding online chats, workouts, and community activities. Check our social channels and website for more details.
Be Inspired: Check out our 50 Game Changers video series showcasing the stories of game changers in the Special Olympics movement and game-changing moments toward inclusion.
Stand Together: Put your energy towards a cause that never stops: inclusion! Add your name to our inclusion pledge and commit to spreading inclusion every day.
While there are limitations to how we can physically be in contact, there are no limitations to how we can socially and emotionally connect to one another. Compassion can travel just as fast as a virus. So can a smile.
Stay Safe. Be Brave.
