Volunteering with Special Olympics Arizona in Douglas is an incredibly rewarding experience, offering individuals the opportunity to have a real impact in the lives of others. Volunteering allows each of us to get more involved with our Douglas community, learn more about those around us, and help make a difference. The impact of our volunteers cannot be overstated: without the help of our amazing community of volunteers, SOAZ would not be able to put on the amazing events that allow our athletes and families to come together and become champions. Whether you want to cheer athletes on from the sidelines, help to organize events with our planning and logistics teams, or provide emotional support to families and athletes, volunteers of all skill sets can find their place within SOAZ’s volunteer opportunities. Fostering an inclusive and empowering atmosphere takes a village and we are so excited to welcome new volunteers into that village year-round. We celebrate athletic accomplishments and help all of our athletes achieve their goals, but we also foster a sense of friendship and acceptance within our Douglas community.

When you volunteer with SOAZ in Douglas, you’ll have the opportunity to promote the success of our events and cultivate enduring connections with your community, from fellow volunteers to athletes and their families. Volunteering is about more than just giving your time and energy; it is about sharing your compassion, spreading joy, and being involved in the creation of memories that will last a lifetime. Special Olympics Arizona is working hard to impact our community year-round, and we have events for you to get involved in all throughout the year. Whether you are looking for a long-term commitment or a one-time opportunity, we’d love to welcome you into our volunteer community!
