SOBC RISE UP Summit | Special Olympics British Columbia

If you are looking for a life-changing, heart-expanding volunteer experience, Special Olympics BC invites you to our RISE UP Summit on October 13. This 30-minute virtual event explains how you can get involved in our variety of coaching and administrative roles, in order to make a meaningful difference for people with intellectual disabilities and create inclusion in your community.

Join us on October 13 to RISE UP: Renew our Inclusive, Supportive, Empowering, and Unifying Programs and opportunities for people with intellectual disabilities!

“Special Olympics gives me purpose, a sense of belonging, something to continually strive for, and has me push myself to the limit!” one athlete said.

Participants are invited to click here to register for their preferred half-hour timeslot between 2 and 6:30 p.m. PT. You will be inspired by Special Olympics BC’s current athletes and volunteers, and learn more about this opportunity to change lives, including your own.

“Special Olympics has provided a sense of community and kept my connection to the sporting world alive. It’s given me a lot more fun and friends than I ever expected,” one of our valued Special Olympics BC volunteers said earlier this year. “An hour a week is enough to wipe all of your other thoughts away and replace them with a lot of fun!”

Please join us and find your reason to RISE UP and volunteer today!
