Law Enforcement Torch Run® for Special Olympics.VOB

Описание: The Law Enforcement Torch Run® for Special Olympics is the largest grass-roots fundraiser and public awareness program for the Special Olympics movement. The North Carolina Law Enforcement Torch Run® for Special Olympics began in 1987 and has raised nearly $15 million for
Special Olympics North Carolina (SONC).
Each year, law enforcement officers from across the state raise funds and awareness for SONC through corporate sponsorships, T-shirt and hat donations and unique fundraising events held throughout the year such as the Plane Pull, golf tournaments, walks, Cops on Top building sits, motorcycle rides and polar plunges.
Each spring more than 2,500 law enforcement officers from more than 150 agencies take part in a 2,000 mile, 18-leg torch relay that ends when officers and athletes carry the Flame of Hope to the Opening Ceremonies of the state-level SONC Summer Games competition. Torch Run officers volunteer their time and efforts to raise the funds used to provide Special Olympics athletes with equipment, uniforms, training facilities, housing and meals at local, area and state-level competitions.
Due to Torch Run support and other successful fundraising efforts, Special Olympics athletes are never charged a fee to participate.
