On July 14th Felix Vega, a Center of Hope employee for five years, volunteered to repel 220 feet down the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Boston, MA to fundraise for Special Olympics. His efforts raised over $1,600 for the agency’s Special Olympics Program. Dressed up as the super hero, Wolverine, Felix said, “I felt like I was playing the part with superhuman senses, agility and reflexes”. When asked why he chose to volunteer and do something so crazy he said, “I love to be adventurous. In the past I have zip lined and went sky diving. When I was offered this opportunity, I had to take it, I may never get the chance to repel off a building again. I got to meet a lot of people all while supporting such a great cause”.
The Center of Hope prides itself on being able to support our Special Olympics Teams and are thankful to have employees like Felix that donate their time and efforts to help achieve its mission and goals.
