I started as a day-of volunteer, unaware of just how much Special Olympics would inspire me and change my life for the better. Volunteers across the state come back year after year because working with the athletes really gives our lives a sense of purpose and community. If you’re considering becoming a volunteer, I can attest that not only will you not regret it, you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner! - Jill Warner
