Special Olympics is not just nice – it’s necessary.

There are many ways you can get involved with Special Olympics Maryland. You can volunteer, you can donate and you can also compete as a Unified teammate. Your support helps to transform the lives of individuals with intellectual disabilities along with their families, friends and supporters while building interactive inclusive communities of dignity and respect

Did you know that an athlete does not pay to participate in Special Olympics? But there is a cost, and your donation can help to cover the fees for training and competition.
