Hi all, I hope you are enjoying the Holidays! This is not a typical
program update email. I am writing to ask for your financial support
for our local Chittenden Program. As you know, Special Olympics does not
charge athletes to participate in our program. That does not mean
everything is free. Even though our local program is entirely run by
volunteers, we have to pay for our facilities, equipment, uniforms and
competition fees. Chittenden pays for all of this through fundraising
events (such as our Flower Sale and our Calcutta) and donations. The
more donations we receive, the less fundraising we have to do, it's that
simple. So, I am asking for your financial support. Below is a list of
the sports we offer and the cost per athlete for each sport. Please
consider donating to our program!
