Special Olympics Polar Plunge
October 16, 2017Special Olympics Minnesota Polar Plunge
Each year, the Polar Plunge challenges thousands of brave jumpers at numerous locations around the state. It’s a great way for everyone—individuals, organizations and businesses—to get involved in supporting Special Olympics Minnesota. All funds raised go towards programming and events.
WE NEED YOUR HELP!
A “like” does NOTHING… but $5 helps bunches!
More than 750 brave souls took the Plunge in South Metro on February 25, 2017 to support Special Olympics Minnesota. These Plungers raised $165,000!
The concept is simple: participants raise a minimum of $75 and take a dip into one of Minnesota’s frozen lakes. But the Plunges are so much more than that: They’re the kind of fun and thrilling events that you really have to experience to understand.
Your donation is tax deductible and supports over 8,000 Special Olympics Minnesota athletes!
Please DONATE NOW.
Even $5 means so much.
Thank you!

The Polar Plunge wouldn’t happen without the support of Law Enforcement!
Plunges are a part of the year-round fundraising program called the Law Enforcement Torch Run, through which law enforcement personnel from across the state raise funds and awareness for Special Olympics Minnesota. Throughout the year, men and women in law enforcement volunteer their time and energy to host events to support us. In 2012, their amazing efforts raised $2.85 million for our athletes.
The Polar Plunges may be just one part of the many events that the Law Enforcement Torch Run hosts each year, but they’re certainly the most well known. Law enforcement folks sit on the planning committee at all Plunge locations, volunteer on Plunge days, recruit the dive teams to ensure safety at all events, help with set up and tear down of the Plunge sites, and work all year round to make these events a huge success.
