We are Freezin’ for a Reason!
We are so excited to be participating in the Penguin Plunge! Donate now to help us raise funds for Special Olympics New Hampshire.
Did you know that Special Olympics strives to create a better world by fostering the acceptance and inclusion of all people? Through the power of sports, people with intellectual disabilities discover new strengths and abilities. Athletes find joy, confidence, and fulfillment — on the playing field and in life. They inspire their communities to open their hearts to a wider world of human talents and potential.
Please make a donation now to support our Plunge and the 3,000 athletes of Special Olympics New Hampshire.
Thank you!
