"Support of Special Olympics means that more people with intellectual disabilities can participate in high-quality sports training and competition," said Georgia Milton-Sheats, Special Olympics Georgia CEO. "When our athletes succeed, attitudes change, communities develop, health and self-esteem are built, and the eyes of the world are focused on all that is good and hopeful and positive. Shaw Industries helps us to achieve this goal."
