MINNEAPOLIS, MN - As soccer captures the attention of fans nationwide during the FIFA World Cup—and following Team USA's historic advancement to the Round of 16—WonderFold is celebrating the power of the sport to unite communities by reflecting on its role as the Official Soccer Sponsor of the 2026 Special Olympics USA Games and extending that impact beyond the competition through the donation of 28 stroller wagons to Minneapolis Crisis Nursery.
Held June 20–26 in Minnesota, the 2026 Special Olympics USA Games brought together more than 3,000 athletes, 1,500 coaches, 10,000 volunteers, and 75,000 fans from across all 50 states in a powerful demonstration of inclusion, determination, and community.
As the Official Soccer Sponsor of the 2026 Special Olympics USA Games, WonderFold proudly supported athletes, coaches, and families throughout the competition while its stroller wagons assisted with event operations across the Opening and Closing Ceremonies. The partnership reflected WonderFold's belief that every athlete deserves a strong support system—and that behind every unforgettable moment on the field is a community showing up together.
In keeping with its commitment to making a lasting impact, all 28 stroller wagons used during the Games will now be donated to Minneapolis Crisis Nursery, a trusted nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting children and families facing crisis situations.
"With the excitement surrounding soccer right now, it's the perfect reminder of sport's incredible ability to bring people together," said Vanessa Landivar, Marketing Director at WonderFold. "That same spirit was on full display at the Special Olympics USA Games, where every athlete inspired us through determination, teamwork, and joy. We were honored to serve as the Official Soccer Sponsor, and by donating these stroller wagons to Minneapolis Crisis Nursery, we're ensuring that the legacy of the Games continues long after the final whistle."
The donation will provide practical support to Minneapolis Crisis Nursery as it serves children and families in need, helping transport supplies, support programming, and create more comfortable experiences for caregivers and children. The contribution reflects WonderFold's broader mission of supporting families through meaningful partnerships and community-driven initiatives.
The sponsorship was rooted in the message, "We Show Up Together," recognizing the families, caregivers, coaches, volunteers, and support systems that stand behind every athlete. It also builds upon WonderFold Cares, the company's ongoing initiative supporting children with medical challenges and special needs through donations, nonprofit partnerships, and exclusive discounts for eligible families.
To commemorate the partnership, WonderFold introduced a Special Olympics Edition stroller wagon collection featuring a custom-designed carriage fabric created exclusively for the Games. The collection is available in both two- and four-seater configurations, along with a coordinating accessory kit, with proceeds helping support Special Olympics athletes and programming.
