Today my Random Act of Happy (RAoH) was donating to the Special Olympics.
From the Special Olympics website......
"The global mission of Special Olympics is to provide year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with an intellectual disability, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes and the community.
In Australia, we have identified how we will achieve this mission in our National Strategy 2012-2015. This outlines how we will give people with an intellectual disability opportunity, choice and the possibility to reach their personal best."
If you would like more information about the Special Olympics, head over to their website - http://www.specialolympics.com.au/.
I admit I haven't donated to a charity for a long while but it feels good to help out, even with only a small donation!
As the Dalai Lama says "Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible"

It's amazing how much of an impact it can have on your self worth to know you've helped someone else. Coming up to the Good Friday Appeal I'm putting together something for the RCH. That's without doubt one of my favourite 'charities'.
ReplyDeleteIt is awesome! I will have to look into the Good Friday Appeal. The RCH is a very worthwhile charity :)
