Loretta Claiborne was the last speaker at TEDxMidatlantic this past October — and they certainly saved the best for last! ”Be Fearless” was the theme of these TED talks where Loretta represented the more than 4 million FEARLESS athletes who are part of Special Olympics. Her talk was moving, inspiring, eye-opening and challenged every person sitting in that auditorium. I can confidently say, when she concluded her speech, not a heart was left unchanged. See for yourself!
Note: A couple months earlier, Loretta was featured as part of The Case Foundation’s Be Fearless series on Special Olympics. If you haven’t seen the series, you can check it out here: Loretta, Tim Harris (Special Olympics Nevada athlete), George Srour (Special Olympics volunteer) and Tim Shriver.
Very inspiring and Heart warming!
