Plunging for Emmy (RTS Warrior)

We are asking all of our family and friends for their support to help us reach our goal. You are all more than welcome to join us if you are up for the challenge! All of the donations will help children like our Rubi-Princess Emmy. Emmy was diagnosed with Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome in 2019 and it has been a journey for our family. Briefly, Rubinstein-Taybi Syndrome is a multi-system genetic condition distinguished by abnormalities of the face, broad thumbs, and broad toes. Developmental and Intellectual disabilities are also present in those with RTS amongst other medical conditions that add to these challenges. Please help us help other families and their child reach their fullest potential. Let's get together and help all those with RTS and other rare disorders that have similar challenges. Any amount will help provide resources as they can be limited. Some of these challenges are temporary or long term and having access to the tools can be hard due to funds or not being seen as a "necessity". Thanks in advance and I hope to see some of you on March 5th! -The Mandujano Family

Why I Plunge

On Sunday, March 5, 2023 I will be participating in the 2023 Chicago Polar Plunge, celebrating more than 20 years of plunging!  I am excited to take on the challenge of the Chicago Polar Plunge and jump in to Lake Michigan’s chilly waters to support thousands of athletes that participate in Special Olympics Chicago/Special Children’s Charities programs. 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:

  1. Donate to my fundraising page!
  2. Join my team and take the plunge with me at North Avenue Beach on March 5, 2023
  3. Help me spread the word! Share my fundraising page with your friends and family. 

Join me and make the #PolarPromise as I raise funds for the Chicago Polar Plunge today.
