Be a part of history...

Thousands of Rhode Islanders with intellectual disabilities aspire to show the state, region, and world their athletic talent and courageous spirit at Special Olympics Rhode Island’s Summer Games. Please consider supporting this culminating event and help make the athletes of Special Olympics Rhode Island dreams a reality.

The 2023 Summer Games are poised to be one of the most memorable games to date as we return to three days of competition, June 2 – 4. This annual event, held at the University of Rhode Island, impacts over 1,000 athletes, engages close to 2,000 community and corporate volunteers and draws some 2,000 or more fans through competition, encouragement, and acceptance. We are also planning new events throughout the week leading up to the games, enhanced marketing, and promotional efforts as well as new and exciting volunteer opportunities.

Contact President and CEO Ed Pacheco at edwin@specialolympicsri.org for more information and how to participate.
