2021 New Year’s Day Polar Plunge Canceled, Goes Virtual

A Wish Come True announced Friday that their 17th Annual Polar Plunge scheduled for Easton’s Beach in Newport, RI will be a virtual Ice Bucket Challenge!

Instead of plunging into the ocean, they are asking plungers to dump a bucket of ice water on themselves and share a video of it on social media with the hashtag #AWCTPolarPlunge.

Donations can be made on A Wish Come True’s Just Giving page, https://www.justgiving.com/awishcometrueinc, or on Venmo @AWishComeTrue. For more information, click here https://files.constantcontact.com/2a4ae3fe601/ae3f949c-c7d1-45fa-81a2-281df5b5a52a.pdf
