Special Olympics Canada is dedicated to enriching the lives of individuals with an intellectual disability through sport. As a national partner, JYSK Canada is proud to be a member of the Special Olympics Canada community. Since 2008 we have donated $100,000 annually to the organization, helping to support more than 47,000 athletes across Canada.

JYSK’S PLUSH GOOSE:
All Proceeds Donated to Special Olympics Canada

To provide additional support for Special Olympics Canada, JYSK introduced the Special Olympics Goose for sale in stores and online in 2017. The plush toy’s design was inspired by the JYSK mascot. With 100% of proceeds going towards Special Olympics Canada, the Special Olympics Goose has been putting smiles on the faces of customers, and thousands of Canadians with intellectual disabilities, every year since.
