SENESE has worked diligently to assist<br />

Special Olympics Samoa to build capacity<br />

and realize an improved situation for people<br />

with Intellectual disabilities. SENESE was<br />

part of the Special Olympics movement that<br />

saw 8 athletes compete in the fi rst World<br />

Summer games in Athens.<br />

Our Achievements<br />

SENESE<br />

works with<br />

Special<br />

Olympics<br />

assisting<br />

in getting<br />

athletes<br />

included<br />

in regular<br />

schools,<br />

supporting the<br />

young athletes<br />

program for<br />

children 2-7<br />

and parent<br />

support<br />

groups.<br />

…..For me the games have<br />

proven time and time again<br />

the human capacity for<br />

change. Every journey worth<br />

taking begins with a single<br />

step, I hope this journey of<br />

change for the better is one<br />

that will never end.<br />

But for now the Athletes<br />

are returning home to their<br />

villages. Donna asked me to<br />

tell you not to be surprised<br />

if you see them still wearing<br />

their medals. She asked<br />

me to ask you if you do see<br />

them go up and shake their<br />

hands and ask them about<br />

Greece.<br />

Share in their victory not<br />

only because they were very<br />

proud Samoans representing<br />

their country in the fi nest<br />

way, the only way a Samoan<br />

knows how to but because<br />

their victory is our victory as<br />

a nation, and who would not<br />

want to share in that?<br />

From here the journey will<br />

continue...not only for the<br />

athletes in their homes<br />

and in their villages but at<br />

their monthly games. It is<br />

these monthly games that<br />

will continue this journey<br />

of change not only for the<br />

athletes but for all of Samoa.<br />

SENESE & Special Olympics<br />

are agents of change.<br />
