This summer, the Croatian Special Olympics delegation of thirty one, including 23 athletes and 8 coaches will be headed to the worldwide Special Olympics 2015 in Los Angeles from July 25th to August 2nd.

Please consider any support for Croatian delegation and Team Croatia and any amount, please check out the link site and we have set up the following online donation page: http://specialolympicsinc.donordrive.com/participant/croatia2015

Croatia will be represented by a volleyball team, soccer team and by two swimmers. As you can imagine, the overall cost for airline travel and flights is very expensive. I have committed to Franjo Horvat, the Executive Director of Special Olympics that we would raise $10,000 from the Croatian American community by May 15th and we have raised about $5,500 thus far over the last three weeks.

Please consider making a donation via credit card or by sending a tax deductible check to the Special Olympics in Washington, DC with the tag line of: Team Croatia, World Games * all donations will be 100% earmarked for Team Croatia.

Puno hvala for any consideration and all the best!
