I tried to find the talent of the children while working with them. And do you know where I found it? I found it in their eyes. When they look at us they want to say "Love us because we can," said in her brief speech the Olympic champion Voula Patoulidou, the head of volunteers in the Greek Committee of Special Olympics.

Main sponsor of the Games is the state sports lottery OPAP. Coca-Cola, Mattel Toy Company and Procter&Gamble are the international sponsors and nearly 20 Greek companies will support the realization of the sporting event. The athletes and the Fire of Hope will be provided free transport by Aegean Airlines and shipping companies in Greece.
