Private Lunch with Dr Tim Shriver 

Global President of Special Olympics Inc

Dr Shriver is the son of the founder of Special Olympics, Eunice Kennedy Shriver and the nephew of JF Kennedy.

 
Dr Tim Shriver, global President of Special Olympics Inc, and son of the founder Eunice Kennedy Shriver, is visiting Australia for 3 days in late February. 

This is the first visit to Australia from International Headquarters, of any President or CEO.

To mark the occasion, Special Olympics Australia together with The American Chamber of Commerce (AmCham) and PWC, invite you to a small gathering where you will have an opportunity to meet Dr Shriver. 

In addition, we will be releasing our first ever Social Impact report undertaken by PWC on behalf of Special Olympics Australia.  We hope that by releasing this information it will give a compelling case to corporate Australia about the importance of inclusion for people with an intellectual disability through sport and through life.
