When your family joins the Special Olympics team,

you join our global family – a support network

that reaches far beyond the playing field.

You will find hope, celebration, pride, acceptance and support.

But most of all, you’ll find friendships that will last a lifetime!

Founded in 1968 by Eunice Kennedy Shriver,

sister of President John F. Kennedy.

Special Olympics, today, serves more than a million athletes

and their families worldwide.

We recognize that it is the family members that champion the cause and rights of their loved ones every day of their lives, and because of them, Special Olympics flourishes today. For that, Special Olympics thanks you!
