Thank you for being a BRRRave Plunger! You and many others brave plungers have raised nearly $12,000 so far! The plunge is in just a few weeks. We still have a way to go to reach the $20,000 goal.

Please read on for some easy tips on how to boost your pledges and win great prizes!

Because Sport Matters

If each plunger raised $500 each, the 2020 Polar Plunge would be the most successful EVER!

Your pledges help Special Olympics athletes across Nova Scotia train hard, achieve their personal best and build an incredible community around them of coaches, volunteers and fellow athletes. Some of these amazing athletes just returned from the National Winter Games in Thunder Bay!

In just a few simple steps, you can use the power of FaceBook to create an easy place for friends and family near and far to donate to your plunge page! And even better, 100% of the pledges go to Special Olympics because FaceBook does not charge a fee.
