Law Enforcement Torch Run (LETR)

Our Relationship with Law Enforcement

The mission of the Nevada Law Enforcement Torch Run® (LETR), in partnership with our communities, is to support Special Olympics Nevada through fundraising and public awareness, which in turn enhances the quality of life of our athletes.  LETR is a year round fundraising campaign with a wide variety of fundraising events taking place throughout the year, culminating at the Special Olympics Nevada Summer Games in June.

We have very dedicated agencies involved in our movement.
If you or your agency wants to participate, complete the Agency interest form.

The Law Enforcement Torch Run® (LETR) is Special Olympics’s largest public awareness vehicle and grass-roots fundraiser. Known honorably as Guardians of the Flame, law enforcement members and Special Olympics athletes carry the “Flame of Hope” into the Opening Ceremony of local competitions, and into Special Olympics State, Provincial, National, Regional, and World Games. Annually, almost 110,000 dedicated and compassionate law enforcement members carry the “Flame of Hope,” symbolizing courage and celebration of diversity uniting communities around the globe.

Special Olympics Nevada is proud of the dedicated law enforcement personnel from all over Nevada who are committed to raising thousands of dollars for our amazing Special Olympics athletes and increasing public awareness to our Program.

If you have any questions or would like more information about getting your agency involved, please contact Liz Volpe at LizV@sonv.org.
