Greater Atlanta Pathways (GAP) sponsors GMST. GAP and GMST are volunteer, self-funded organizations for the benefit of individuals with intellectual, developmental, or physical disabilities. Every dollar raised is used to support GAP and GMST programs. The cost to attend Special Olympics of Georgia (SOGA) State Games is covered by GAP’s fundraising. To cover the costs associated with the games program, GAP requests your help enlisting financial support or in-kind services from businesses, friends, family, churches and agencies and may require your participation in fundraisers from time to time.
To provide a positive experience for all athletes, GAP requests donations to cover the costs of league play. The amount for each sport is different due to the specific costs associated with each sport such as number of practices, uniform costs, facility rental, local permits, equipment costs, insurance, transportation, entrance fees, referees, umpires, EMTs etc.
