Independence High School

Hello! My name is Grace Hamel and I am a senior at Independence High School in Loudoun County, Virginia. I have worked with Special Olympics during the basketball season, assisted an fsu volunteer group, and play soccer for a local team named Barcelona.

"Special Olympics means so much to me because it proves that we are all people and just because you have a disability does not mean that you are any less of a person, we all have the same capabilities."
