The money was distributed by Ms. Muralidharan to four students of Asha Deepam Special School and the Blossom Special School. The four have mild to moderate mental retardation. Seven athletes from Trichy represented India in the previous Special Olympics that was held in Athens, and made the country proud by bringing back medals.
