2025 Buffalo Polar Plunge

UB Law School

Leaders for Philanthropy is Taking the Plunge!

We're a community of law students and professors at the University at Buffalo School of Law united by a simple goal: to highlight the work of individuals and groups who are actively engaged in making a difference in the community. As future lawyers and leaders, we're committed to using our platform to support causes that matter.

This year, we're diving into the icy waters of Buffalo to support Special Olympics NY because true leadership means getting uncomfortable for a worthy cause. We're trading our casebooks for swimsuits and taking the plunge alongside athletes who inspire us daily with their courage, determination, and joy.

Your donation will directly fund training programs, competitions, and activities for Special Olympics NY athletes, at no cost to them or their families. These programs don't just build athletic skills; they create community, confidence, and opportunity.

Join us in making waves. Whether you donate $5 or $500, you're showing our athletes that this community stands behind them. And you're helping us prove that the next generation of lawyers knows how to lead with heart.

Ready to help us brave the cold for a warm cause? Let's take the plunge together.
