Special Olympics Virginia has a long-standing tradition of attracting volunteers from all walks of life. Genuine interaction with our athletes inspires volunteers to see things in a new light, assign value differently, and be filled with the Spirit of Special Olympics, which, of course, is the magic of the movement.

There is a place in Special Olympics for volunteers of all ages, abilities, interests and schedules. Join in the fun and volunteer today.
