As the twenty-fifth season of Little People, Big World comes to a close, audiences will see the Roloffs engage deeply with a cause they cherish deeply.
In a generous effort, Matt Roloff and his partner Caryn Chandler were behind a charity fundraiser at Roloff Farms which supported the Dwarf Athletic Association of America (DAAA). Their collaborative efforts were joined by Amy Roloff and her spouse, Chris Marek. Prior to the airing of the Season 25 finale on Tuesday, April 23, TLC provided an exclusive preview to Parade.
Amy addressed those gathered for the charity, stating, “I’ve been a part of DAAA since 1985. DAAA was established to offer those with dwarfism the chance to participate in athletic activities.” She mentioned her own participation in DAAA events playing basketball and volleyball, and the joy of watching her son, Zach, play soccer. Today, the tradition continues as she cheers on her grandson, Jackson, in DAAA soccer.
“Even if you lose, you learn how to pick yourself up and start over again,” Amy emphasized. She believes that “sports speaks so much more about life… This is what DAA meant to me.”
Amy also reflected on the significance of the DAAA in her conversation with producers, noting that the organization “gives you the opportunity to try sports, to play it.” She suggested the profound impact of being in a sporting environment, even briefly, for individuals with dwarfism.
While Little People, Big World has not been officially renewed by TLC for a 26th season, Zach and Tori Roloff have announced Season 25 as their swan song on the show, raising questions about the series’ continuation without them.
