​Why I Plunge

When I was in college I started volunteering with Special Olympics through a community service organization that I was involved with. Little did I know, that would spark a fire inside me and change my life for the better in so many ways. I went from volunteering to coaching, and then starting a training club in Central Square and volunteering at events and being on Plunge committees. Additionally, I now have the privilege of working with our fabulous athletes in a different capacity as an Athlete Leadership Council mentor.  

I plunge because the athletes that I have grown to know and love over the years amaze me and inspire me every day, and I want to do everything I can to continue to spark joy in their lives like they have done in mine.
