I plunge for my brother Kevin. He was a Special Olympics trendsetter participating in the very first Special Olympics over 50 years ago. Because of donations by people like you the Special Olympics continues to grow. This is my 14th Polar Plunge. Please consider donating to this amazing cause.
On Sunday, March 1, 2026 I will participate in Polar Plunge® Chicago for Special Olympics Illinois presented by Special Children's Charities, one of the city's most popular winter fundraising events! I am excited to take on the challenge and jump into Lake Michigan's chilly waters to support thousands of individuals with intellectual disabilities. With your support, people with intellectual disabilities have the opportunity to discover new strengths, abilities, and accomplishments.
There are three easy ways to support my plunging efforts:
