Other Opportunities to Support SOCT
There are a number of ways to help support Special Olympics Connecticut, including attending a fundraising event or participating in a fundraising program. Learn more about these opportunities and how you can get involved!
Join for an Exclusive Showing of Champions!
You're invited to join us for an exclusive viewing of "Champions" starring Woody Harrelson as a Special Olympics basketball coach and Special Olympics athletes from Massachusetts and Canada as players on his team! The event will be hosted by The Prospector Theater in Ridgefield and take place on Friday, March 10th. Movie time is 7:15.
General admission tickets are $20 and VIP tickets are $100 and entitle the ticket holder to a tour of the Theater and pre-screening reception that will begin at 6 p.m. Tickets must be purchased in advance. See you there!
Other Ways Raise Money for SOCT
Open a TD Bank account and a donation will be made to support our athletes.
Donate your car, boat, RV or other unused motor vehicle to Special Olympics and help athletes play in three simple steps! Your donation will help athletes have the chance to develop skills, compete in sports with their peers and create memories that will last a lifetime.
To make a donation, click the button below or call (888) 828-002. A local towing company will reach out within two to three business days and schedule a pickup time that's convenient. Once you donate your vehicle, you'll receive an email that includes a car donation tax receipt.
Download the Charity Miles app (free) from the Apple Store or Google Play Store and select Special Olympics Connecticut as your charity of choice. For every mile you move, you help earn money for your charity from our corporate sponsorship pool. You can also get sponsored by your friends.
Special Olympics Connecticut partners with several sports and entertainment organizations throughout the year. A portion of ticket proceeds benefits our year-round programs when purchased through the designated channel. See below for a list of ticket sales promotions (currently running promotions will include a link to purchase tickets):
- Connecticut Sun
- Hartford Wolf Pack
- Hartford Yard Goats
- Hartford Athletic
- Bridgeport Islanders
- UCONN
Turn your special day into a day of giving! Instead of the usual party favors and presents, please consider an “in lieu of” gift to Special Olympics Connecticut. Knowing you are enriching the lives of our athletes while celebrating a memorable occasion is a wonderful gift. The possibilities are ended with your custom DIY Fundraising campaign.
Get Active! Whether it's a triathlon or a neighborhood walk, your finish line can kick start inclusion for more athletes of all abilities.
Get Creative! Whether it's a mustache competition or a personal art show, your #FunRaising creates real impact for our champion athletes!
