Our Special Olympics Partnership

Engel & Völkers Americas is a proud champion of Special Olympics. As a Premier level partner, we are committed to raising more than $150,000 a year as

Special Olympics athletes. Engel & Völkers has created several opportunities for our network to support Special Olympics, including our Contribution at Closing program, EVX fundraisers, online campaign, annual events, and the ability for our shops to partner with local Special Olympics chapters in their area for events.

Our most successful program to support Special Olympics, Contribution at Closing allows our advisors to donate a portion of their commission to Special Olympics on behalf of their client

Each year at EVX, we present a check to Special Olympics for the previous year’s fundraising totals, award our networks’ top contributors, and host additional fundraisers throughout the event

Our annual fall fundraiser, 60 Minutes for Special Olympics is a network wide initiative where our network comes together and pledges to spend 60 minutes exercising to raise awareness and funds for Special Olympics, raising nearly $100k each year.
