At Conexus, we believe in protecting and empowering people—and that mission extends far beyond insurance. Through our Conexus Cares program, we partner with nonprofits that are creating safer, more inclusive, and more compassionate communities.
One of our incredible Q3 nonprofit partners is Special Olympics Colorado, a powerhouse of inclusion, athleticism, and heart. Their work impacts thousands of children and adults with intellectual disabilities across the state, providing access to sports, connection, and opportunity.
🏅 About Special Olympics Colorado
Special Olympics Colorado (SOCO) provides year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities. These programs help athletes build physical fitness, demonstrate courage, and experience joy—while fostering friendships and inclusion that extend far beyond the playing field.
From local events to global competitions, SOCO empowers individuals to discover their strengths and show the world what they’re capable of. Their commitment to dignity, inclusion, and personal achievement makes them a perfect fit for the Conexus Cares mission to uplift others.
✈️ Join Us for the Plane Pull on
August 23, 2025
One of SOCO’s most exciting annual fundraisers is the Plane Pull, taking place this year on Saturday, August 23 at Denver International Airport. Teams of 25 will go head-to-head in an unforgettable challenge: pulling an United Airlines airplane across the tarmac as fast as possible—all to raise funds and awareness for SOCO athletes.
We’re thrilled to announce that Team Conexus Pull Force is officially entered and ready to flex some muscle to support Special Olympics.
🥪 August Lunch & Learn: Hear from a SOCO Athlete
As part of our ongoing support, we’re honored to welcome a Special Olympics Colorado athlete to the Conexus office this August for a Lunch & Learn. They’ll be sharing their personal story, what Special Olympics has meant to them, and how the organization has impacted their life both on and off the field.
It’s a unique opportunity for our team to connect directly with the mission we’re supporting—and be reminded of the power of inclusion, resilience, and community.
💙 Support Our Team & Special Olympics Colorado
Every dollar raised for the Plane Pull directly supports Special Olympics Colorado and the athletes who inspire us all with their determination, resilience, and joy. We’re pulling for a purpose—and we’d love your support.
Your generous donations will help fund uniforms, transportation, training programs, and life-changing events for athletes across the state.
Why This Matters to Us
Our Conexus Cares program is about more than corporate giving—it’s about standing shoulder to shoulder with organizations that are changing lives. Special Olympics Colorado embodies the heart of what we stand for: inclusion, dignity, and meaningful community impact.
We’re proud to play even a small part in fueling their mission—and we hope you’ll join us in lifting up this extraordinary organization.
