About:

These students (who are also athletes) all are members of our Youth Activation Committee—the group is in charge of helping increase inclusion and promoting our unified sports programs.
Our YAC raised more than $2500 and jumped in the 38° lake! Overall, the Ithaca polar plunge raised more than $80,000 for the Special Olympics! This amount covers all costs for 160 athletes at the Special Olympics. This is the first in person plunge in a few years and the second time our YAC has participated.
The Special Olympics Summer Games are being held in Ithaca this year, so we are extra invested in the cause!
We had about 15 athletes fundraise for the event and 9 athletes actually took the plunge.  We fundraised for about a month, the plunge was for 4 hours on a Saturday.
