About the Law Enforcement Torch Run
The Law Enforcement Torch Run® for Special Olympics (LETR) is a year-round partnership that brings law enforcement and Special Olympics together to raise funds, build awareness and champion inclusion for people with intellectual disabilities.
Here in New Hampshire, law enforcement professionals and agencies support Special Olympics New Hampshire in many ways throughout the year, building meaningful connections with athletes and making a difference in communities across the state.
More than Running
Throughout the year, law enforcement professionals can volunteer at Special Olympics competitions, present awards to athletes, participate in fundraisers, represent their agencies at events, raise awareness and find other ways to support SONH.
The Flame of Hope
Each spring, members of law enforcement carry the Flame of Hope across New Hampshire through a series of Torch Run legs, building awareness and momentum leading into Special Olympics New Hampshire’s State Summer Games.
A Tradition of Impact in New Hampshire
For more than four decades, New Hampshire law enforcement has been part of the Special Olympics New Hampshire movement.
Together, law enforcement professionals and agencies have raised millions of dollars for Special Olympics New Hampshire while giving their time, representing their communities and building relationships with athletes across the state.
