Why Special Olympics BC

Athletes find belonging, friendships, and empowerment through sport! We offer a variety of sport, youth, and health programs for athletes to accomplish achievements and growth within a safe and inclusive community.

Volunteers make Special Olympics BC programs possible for thousands of deserving athletes with intellectual disabilities across the province. There are a wide range of volunteer roles available with the provision of training resources.

Donors empower athletes with intellectual disabilities by ensuring the future of our year-round programs. None of the fun, games, and life-changing experiences would be possible without the support of our donors.
