Wow.  It took less than 24 hours for so many wonderful donations to come in to reach my goal of $200.  Thanks to everyone who has donated.  It means a lot to me!

Thank you for visiting my "Plunge" fundraising page. They say anyone with a little guts and a warm heart can take the "Plunge" and I am one of those folks. I'm collecting pledges from family, friends, co-workers and anyone else who wants to support Special Olympics Illinois athletes. Your donations will help provide athletes with intellectual disabilities the chance to participate in sports training and competition. To reward your generosity, I'm going to join an expected 2,000 people statewide who will voluntarily jump into freezing cold water in the middle of winter as we take part in the Law Enforcement Torch Run Polar Plunges for Special Olympics Illinois. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to the Law Enforcement Torch Run Polar Plunge for Special Olympics Illinois Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
