Partnership opportunities include the reach and efficiency of measured media, the goodwill of cause marketing, the local relevance of grassroots partnerships, and the benefits of associating with volunteerism and sports events. From statewide partnerships, sports competitions, signature events or health and wellness initiatives, sponsors can choose from a variety of packages to find the best fit.
The Special Olympics has had a profound impact on my life. Their focus on inclusion, breaking down barriers, and seeing the potential in others and supporting them to be and do their best is an inspiration for me. As an employee of Delta Air Lines, I have enjoyed being a part of our growth each year, from a handful of employees to a large cross-divisional mix of colleagues worldwide representing our global community in support of individuals with and without intellectual disabilities. The Special Olympics reminds us that everyone, regardless of their background, has the basic human right to be valued and appreciated. What a beautiful thing it is to bring our sons and daughters together, regardless of their intellectual and physical challenges, and let them know they are special, they are valued and we want to provide them with a world in which they are accepted and celebrate their achievements, whether they are participating as an individual or part of a team.
