Explanation
(This amendment provides $100,000 the second year from the general fund to the Special Olympics Virginia Inc. The funds will be used to assist children and adults with intellectual disabilities in Virginia.

Special Olympics provides opportunities for genuine interaction between persons with intellectual disabilities and the general public and inspire all people to open their minds to accept people with intellectual disabilities.)
