The Rotary Club of Forest Lake cordially invites you to partner with us in your organization’s fundraising efforts by participating in our Winter Plunge 2026.

Just form a team, pick the non-profit organization your fundraising efforts will benefit, and start collecting pledges (online & in person) towards your frosty plunge into Forest Lake in February!
We are now using Classy by Go Fund Me for the Winter Plunge fundraising site. We are confident this platform will be simple to use, and help maximize our participants donations for their cause. Classy has several great tools to help you maximize your team’s donations including a customizable personal fundraising page that is easy to share with your friends and family, and more payment options for donors!
The Rotary Club will manage the fundraising site and takes care of all the event day details so you can focus on fundraising and get ready to get COLD for your CAUSE! All kinds of non-profit organizations and community groups participate in the Plunge every year. We welcome non-profit organizations (501c3 & 501c4), civic clubs & organizations (Rotary, Lions, Masonic Lodge, Kiwanis etc.), school activities booster clubs, youth sports organizations, animal shelters & rescue organizations, and many more!
The Rotary Club puts on the Winter Plunge fundraiser in an effort to assist non-profit organizations in raising funds. There is significant planning and expense in putting on this event. To cover those costs, as well as to raise money for Rotary Club projects, the money raised by each Plunge team is divided between the recipient non-profit organization and the Rotary Club. 70% of the total raised is to the non-profit organization and 30% goes to the Rotary Club of Forest Lake.
