CMR Fundraiser Supports 10 Special Olympics Athletes
In December 2013, CMR launched a fundraising effort benefiting the Special Olympics 2015 Summer World Games Support-An-Athlete program. We are proud to announce that our team met its goal of raising $25,000 and will be covering costs for 10 Special Olympics Athletes while they compete in Los Angeles over the next two weeks.
The funds raised have been allocated to provide athletes with housing, food, entertainment, medical support, and transportation while participating in the Games. We have been paired with a diverse set of amazing athletes from around the world, and are excited to cheer them on as they live out their dreams!
Please join us in celebrating these exceptional World Games participants. If you are in the Los Angeles area between July 25 and August 2, we encourage you to attend a competition. All are free and open to the public. Learn more about the World Games and competition schedule by visiting the LA2015 website.
Plus, meet the “CMR Squad” through their athlete bios below.
