Support the Plunge β Help Melbourne Inner East Make a Difference!

This July, our amazing team at Special Olympics Melbourne Inner East is braving the cold for a cause that warms hearts. We're taking the Polar Plunge to raise funds that directly support athletes with intellectual disabilities in our local community.
Your donation helps us provide year-round sports, inclusion, and empowerment for our athletes. From training and competitions to friendships and confidence-building, every dollar makes a real impact.
Together, we can create a more inclusive world, one chilly splash at a time.
Please donate today and help us reach our goal!
