A Huge thank you to those that contributed. I'm looking forward to next year already. Definatly need to get the belly in check for next years photo's. What's important is the lives we touched together. This is a partial press release from the Special Olympics of PA.
It’s time to CELEBRATE and CONGRATULATE each one of you, our sponsors, plungers, UCS Schools, and generous donors who helped the Northwest Polar Plunge exceed our $100,000 goal, over double what was raised last year! We are currently at $102,500 dollars with more donations pledged. We are under $1,200 away from breaking Erie’s all-time plunge record that was set in 2017. Let’s CELEBRATE the lives that will be changed because of YOU!
Monies raised will provide year-round sports training and competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults in the Northwest Region with intellectual disabilities. It will give them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy, and participate in the sharing of gifts, skills, and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes, and the community.
Because of you, over 600 lives in Northwest PA will be impacted in such a positive way this year!
