50 years ago @SpecialOlympics put a bright - and very public - spotlight on ability, not disability. Today, more than 5 million athletes train and compete in more than 100,000 events each year & in over 170 nations.
The @SpecialOlympics has become a global movement that has taught everyone around the world, disability or no disability, to play & live unified & to choose to include. #YouCanPlay
To mark the 50th Anniversary of @SpecialOlympics, the Eternal Flame of Hope - a permanent, 23-foot monument honoring the birth of Special Olympics at @SoldierField in 1968 - will be lit at a dedication ceremony today.
