Volunteer
Our community thrives thanks to our amazing volunteers. There are many ways to get involved—helping with fundraising, coaching, assisting at practices and events, or working concessions. You can sell peaches or candy bars, join the Plane Pull or Polar Plunge, or help plan and run social events. Volunteering not only supports our teams but also helps build lasting connections in our community.
Our Athletes
At the Aurora Special Olympics, we honor the courage, determination, and spirit of our athletes. Through hard work and pride, they inspire us with their resilience, teamwork, and joy. We proudly support them as they chase goals, build friendships, and share their talents.
Our Mission & Vision
