Special Olympics Asia Pacific (SOAP) relies on Face-to-Face fundraising and telemarketing to fund our essential programs, including year-round sports training, athletic competitions, and health and leadership development for individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID) across 35 countries in the Asia Pacific region, such as India, Singapore, Australia, and the Pacific Islands among others.
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted our operations, leading to an 84% drop in Athlete Engagement. Support is crucial to help us restart, rebuild, and reclaim our reach in the region.
