Prices start at just $12.99 for 10 athlete designed cards.

"VistaPrint, through their Special Olympics holiday cards, is yet another example of how corporations are executing opportunities to encourage acceptance and support of our athletes," said Bruce Pasternack, president and CEO of Special Olympics.
