Support Serguei and the Special Olympics

Post date: Feb 09, 2015 4:11:7 PM

On February 14th, we support fellow club member Serguei Lougovier, who will be representing our club by participating in the Polar Plunge to raise money for the Special Olympics of Michigan. Please support our friend with a generous tax deductible donation. Or you may consider joining the cause to participate and raise money directly. Feel free to forward this info to others. The mission of Special Olympics is to provide year round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic type sports for all children and adults with intellectual disabilities, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes and the community. Special Olympics is exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the IRS, so your gift is tax deductible.

You may donate at Serguei’s page: http://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/serguei-lougovier/Detroit15

Everyone deserves a chance at a happy and purposeful life. Yet people with intellectual disabilities face doubt, barriers, and low expectations. For many, Special Olympics is the only place where they find an opportunity to participate in their communities, develop belief in themselves, and feel like champions. For every inspiring Special Olympics athlete in Michigan there are 13 more people waiting for their chance - and so many more around the world. Donate today and help us reach out to one more person who wants to participate in Special Olympics.
