2025 Darling Ducklings

Welcome to my page!  My name is Sophia and I am part of the Darling Ducklings team!


I have been competing in Special Olympics sports since 2017!  The sports that I participate in are:  Bowling, Bocci, Track, Basketball and Softball. I also joined the Athlete Leadership program this year and have been working on developing leadership skills and attending local LETR events!

 

My favorite thing about Special Olympics is that I am able to do things I never thought I would do!  My mom says that my confidence has grown so much and that being a Special Olympics Athlete taught me that with a little courage, I can do anything I want!  My Special Olympics teams are like family to me. I have met so many great people and love making new friends! 


Joining the Darling Ducklings team is another way for me to give back to this organization that has had a huge impact on my life. I am selling tickets to adopt ducks for the 2025 Chicago Ducky Derby which benefits Special Olympics of Illinois' community of 29,000 athletes!


Please join me in supporting Special Olympics of Illinois by adopting some of these little yellow quackers!


If you would like to join us for the duck drop on August 7th. Just waddle on down to the Columbus Drive Bridge in Chicago to watch the drop at 1:00 PM!


Thank you for your donation.
