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.
In June of 2024, my niece Emma was born with brain damage on both sides of her brain. I'll be jumping for Emma who is currently facing serious developmental challenges. Despite her difficult journey, she is one of the happiest and most upbeat babies you'll ever meet! With your support, childern with disabilities like Emma can have the opportunity to discover new strengths, abilities, and accomplishments. Please consider donating and let's plunge!
