Join the Joy of Sport Gala Committee

The Joy of Sport Gala changes lives and builds inclusion by helping Special Olympics BC provide year round sport, youth, and health programs and competitive experiences, for athletes with intellectual disabilities at low or no cost to participants and families. Your generous support helps ensure Special Olympics BC athletes can access this critical source of connections and confidence for athletes in 55 communities across the province.

What does being a committee member involve?

• Monthly meetings on Zoom. We encourage participation in meetings as that is when our best brainstorming happens!
• Each committee member brings their unique skills to make our committee successful. They network to actively support fundraising efforts, which includes connecting SOBC to sponsors, selling gala tables, acquiring auction items, and securing wine donations.

To help Special Olympics BC athletes play the sports they love and break down barriers, please get in touch with Special Olympics BC Events Manager Meg Ishida at mishida@specialolympics.bc.ca
