LAW ENFORCEMENT
for SPECIAL OLYMPICS
LAW
ENFORCEMENT
FOR SPECIAL
OLYMPICS
One of the organization's largest grass-roots
volunteer movements involves hundreds
of thousands of law enforcement officers
throughout the world volunteering their time
to raise awareness and money for Special
Olympics. In the 32-year history of Delaware
Law Enforcement for Special Olympics,
more than $6 million has been raised. The
support of LESO includes the signature Law
Enforcement Torch Run at Summer Games,
and has expanded to include Ads Solicitation,
Truck Convoy, and Ride to the Tide. Law
Enforcement also plays a vital supporting role
at the Polar Bear Plunge and Over the Edge,
as well as providing participants, numerous
coaches and volunteers for our events and
having a presence at all Special Olympics
awards ceremonies, regardless of the size of
the event.
