Join us for the COOLEST event of the year! People all across Kansas are participating in our 2024 Polar Plunge and so can you! Organize a team of your friends, co-workers, families, or choose to go solo. Then get creative by putting together costumes for this year’s theme & take the plunge into some icy cold water! Every dollar raised in the 2024 Polar Plunge will go towards Special Olympics programming to support over 4,800 Special Olympics athletes in the state of Kansas. Your contribution and involvement helps athletes achieve their goals on & off the field, have a healthier lifestyle, and a sense of inclusion in the community.

The theme for our 2024 Plunge season is Together We Freeze! Everyone involved with Special Olympics Kansas is part of our one team, so let’s do this together. Get dressed up in your most icy costume (think blues, silvers, white, fur, sequins, snowflakes, and glitter) and come out for a good cause! If you don’t feel like dressing to that theme, just dress like you’re freezing cold! We’re all a part of one team – together, we’ll all freeze!
Special Olympics Kansas is pleased to offer the opportunity to partner with local non-profits, churches and school group through the Polar Plunge®! We will share a portion of the funds your team raises online!
