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!

WHO WE ARE

motionball is a national non-profit organization that empowers young Canadians to be leaders in their communities, raising funds and awareness for Special Olympics through inclusive social and sporting events.

This year in particular, Special Olympics athletes need us more than ever as many remain isolated and alone, at a greater risk of contracting COVID-19 than the general population.

While fundraising is one of our goals, Marathon of Sport is about so much more. This day not only brings awareness to the Special Olympics movement, but allows people with and without intellectual disabilities to interact, build lifelong friendships, and ultimately create more inclusive communities.

By entering a Team, you will also help to ensure our friends at Special Olympics New Brunswick have the resources they need to stay active at home and that when the time comes later this year, they can safely return to the sport programs they love.
