Volunteers make a difference
Who has the most fun with Special Olympics Monroe
Michigan? Sometimes it's a toss-up between our volunteers and our
athletes. Some of the things our volunteers say:
- I feel good about giving back
to the community.
- I am inspired by the athletes'
effort and courage.
- This program is what sports is
really about.
- Volunteering keeps me active.
You can help our athletes achieve their goals and
dreams. Volunteers are needed in many different capacities. Coaches are
needed to train our athletes. Other volunteer positions include:
chaperones and drivers, scorekeepers and officials, fund raising
coordinators, newsletter editors, and special event volunteers.
You can volunteer for one day or throughout the year.
