Core Values
"Let me win, but if I cannot win, let me brave in the attempt."
-Special Olympics Motto
At Uplifting Heroes we put an emphasis on the following:
Achievement
In addition to the friendships made along the way, our athletes are able to prove their determination, show their progress and change the perceptions of others
Having Fun
This gives our athletes a chance to do what they love, learn about the sport, challenge themselves and eachother, and have fun at the exact same time!
