Recognized
by the Chronicle of Philanthropy as the "most credible charity" in
the United States, Special Olympics Montana invites you to help
organize, plan and host the 2010 Special Olympics State Summer
Games. The roles and duties are many, requiring hundreds of
volunteers to organize and prepare for the Games. If you wish to be a corporate sponsor, Special Olympics
Montana has many different levels of involvement.
Just
as Special Olympics Montana athletes give their personal best, Special
Olympics Montana invites you to do the same and become part of the
Special Olympics movement. More
than being successful, you are invited to be significant - enabling
people to be able because you have encouraged them to be courageous.
