Start your New Year with a chill that warms hearts! On January 1, 2026, join hundreds of brave plungers at Easton’s Beach (First Beach) in Newport for A Wish Come True’s 22nd Annual Polar Plunge Challenge. Every dollar raised helps grant heartfelt wishes for local children with life-threatening illnesses — like Nicholas (11, Jamestown, RI), who dreams of a Celtics Experience. We jump at 12pm sharp!
Whether you’re plunging solo, joining a team, or cheering from the shore, your participation helps grant magical wishes for families right here in Rhode Island, Southeastern and Central Massachusetts, and Eastern Connecticut.
Every dollar raised supports children with life-threatening illnesses, and participants have until January 1, 2026 to raise $100 for an EXCLUSIVE Polar Plunge beanie and $500 for a EXCLUSIVE VIP hoodie too, with follow-up after that date to redeem your incentives
Gather your friends, family, coworkers, or classmates and create a team fundraising page. Set your goal, customize your page, and share your link on social media to rally support. Raise $1,000 or more to be entered to win $1,500!
