We Dare You - Take the Plunge!

Plunge into icy waters and warm your heart knowing you've raised funds for thousands of Special Olympics North Carolina athletes.

Make a big splash by getting your company, church, school or friends to participate. The event comes complete with food, music, T-shirts and prizes for best costume, top fundraiser, etc.

Form a Polar Bear Club, raise money for the honor of pushing the boss in, plunge together as a group, or bring the whole family to plunge together. Everyone is sure to get their adrenaline pumping!

The minimum donation to plunge is $50 per person. No pre-registration is necessary - Simply show up the day of the plunge with your donation. Plungers can easily raise money by creating their own personal fundraising Web page at www.firstgiving.com/sonc and emailing their friends and family to support their wet, wild and wintry leap!
