2022 USA Games fundraising
We are so proud of each of these Special Olympics Kansas athletes, Unified partners, and coaches for being chosen to participate in the 2022 Special Olympics USA Games in Orlando, Florida. To attend the games, each individual is required to raise $1000 to fund their trip and rely heavily on fundraising and donations.
Click on athlete photos to read more about them or to donate to their fundraising efforts! Attendees are listed in alphabetical order and are added as they submit their information.
