ABOUT:

Every dollar raised helps support vital programming for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

The Philadelphia Polar Plunge is an annual fundraising event for Special Olympics Pennsylvania that takes place at Citizens Bank Park. Participants brave the cold and test their boundaries by plunging into freezing waters to raise money and awareness for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Food and entertainment will be provided, creating a lively atmosphere for all before, during and after the plunge.

Join us in making a meaningful difference – by participating or supporting, you'll help create opportunities for athletes with intellectual disabilities while experiencing a fun and unique community event. This event also embodies the spirit of inclusion, social impact and support for the broader Philly community, many things I know all of you care deeply about!
