SOBC Champions Network
Special Olympics BC Champions Network members generously lend their time and talents to support Special Olympics athletes and our shared mission.
Special Olympics is an inspiring movement of athletes, families, coaches, volunteers, sponsors, and celebrities coming together with the common goal of improving the lives of people with intellectual disabilities and inspiring everyone to open their hearts to a wider world of human talents and potential.
When high-profile supporters stand up as champions of our athletes and movement, it makes a difference. Special Olympics BC is fortunate to have our Champions Network members who give their time to advocate our athletes and cause.
These leaders are inspirational role models who share a belief in the power of sport to break down barriers and foster a world of inclusion for people with intellectual disabilities. They spread the word about Special Olympics BC’s life-changing sports, health, youth, and education programs. They attend Special Olympics events to raise awareness and share joy. They lend their voices to calls for awareness of Special Olympics and respect and support for athletes. They make a difference by setting an example for a more inclusive, respectful world.
We are so grateful for the advocacy and inspiring example of our Champions Network!
