London 2012 Olympics

For over 45 years, the Virgin Islands has celebrated the Olympic tradition by sending our athletes to compete. This summer that tradition continues at the Summer Olympic Games in London.

The dreams and the training of our Virgin Islands Olympians could not have been possible without the financial support of the Virgin Islands Olympic Committee and you. The Committee provided funding for travel, competition and training grants for 23 different sports.

The Virgin Islands Olympic Committee needs your help to continue a winning tradition. Become a sponsor today and help make the Olympic dream a reality for our athletes.

Keep Olympic dreams alive for our future Olympians. Make your donation at any Choice Wireless location or contact the Virgin Islands Olympic Committee at (340) 719-8463.
