Sobeys, a dedicated partner since 2016, helps our athletes, families and coaches eat better and feel better with nutrition guides, cooking classes and fresh, accessible food. Throughout the pandemic, our top priority has been to ensure our athletes remain safe, healthy and active at home, while feeling connected and supported throughout these challenging times. It is with the help of partners like Sobeys Inc., that Special Olympics continues to be able to put the athletes first and work to build up our resources and ensure that we are ready for a safe return to sport. This April 1 to 15, please join us in answering, "Challenge accepted," and heading into your local Sobeys banner store to donate $2. Together, we can raise $1 million and help Special Olympics athletes hungry to participate. Thank you for your continued support of Special Olympics in Canada.
