Dunleavy’s gifts major donation
Jan. 27 was a great day to kick off the year and put much needed funds — courtesy of a record-breaking $47,501 check by Dunleavy’s Pub — in the Special Olympics coffers.
In addition to the vast number of regular events Special Olympics South Carolina provides for athletes around the state, 2026 is also a year of the Special Olympics USA games. South Carolina will be sending a delegation of 152 athletes and coaches to Minnesota at a cost of about $1300 per attendee.
All fundraising efforts are vital this year, reports Special Olympics South Carolina Director of Marketing & Development Sandye Williams.
The organization’s next polar plunge will take place in February on the Isle of Palms, followed by a “huge” bocce tournament on May 23.
