AmpliVox Sound Systems was proud to announce that it had signed on as a sponsor for the Special Olympics Illinois Sixth Annual Inspire Greatness Gala. This fundraising dinner, held at the Four Seasons Hotel in Chicago on October 26, supported the wide variety of athletic competitions and programs offered by Special Olympics for children and adults with intellectual disabilities.
Special Olympics is a global organization that unleashes the human spirit through the transformative power and joy of sport, every day around the world. Through programming in sports, health, education and community building, Special Olympics endeavors to improve the lives of people with intellectual disabilities.
The Illinois branch of Special Olympics provides opportunities for more than 21,000 athletes, 40,000 volunteers and thousands more people statewide. In 2012, the Inspire Greatness Gala raised approximately $650,000 to support those programs.
