YOUR IMPACT
Join us in supporting Special Olympics Canada Foundation
While COVID-19 has impacted us all, Special Olympics athletes are feeling the effects of this global pandemic more than most. Sport programs are on hold, competitions have been postponed, and many athletes remain indoors missing their social connections. Now more than ever, the role of motionball events in these athlete’s lives is incredibly important. As one of Special Olympics’ largest funding partners in Canada, motionball has donated over $14M to date. motionball supporters are dedicated to ensuring that every local club and program can return stronger than before, and that no Special Olympics athlete is left behind.
DJ DXB's motionball mixes
Long time motionball supporter & Marathon of Sport Toronto DJ, DJ DxB, knows just how much our Special Olympics athletes love to dance – so he’s been bringing the positive vibes and creating some incredible mixes weekly so our athletes can jam out in the comfort of their own home!
We recommend that you start off your day by jamming out to these awesome tunes!
Plus – a number of the songs featured on these playlists were chosen by Special Olympics Ontario athletes, so you’re sure to have a blast!
