Early 2024 Charitable Plunges

What makes a successful charitable plunge?

1. Choose the cause you want to support.*
2. Raise money from those who’ll enjoy seeing you shiver.
3. Gather up your courage.
4. Toss off your hat, gloves, and coat.
5. Run straight into very chilly waters.
6. Race back out and warm up!

*Want to stay toasty? Remain on the beach (or at home) and make a donation.
