On February 1st, I hit the 1 year mark of serving as a staff member with Special Olympics Kentucky. It only seems right to commemorate the anniversary by committing to plunge into frigid water to show my support for the over 10,200 Special Olympics athletes in Kentucky! This weekend I will be pariticapting in the Louisville Polar Plunge. Your donation will not only force me into the icy cold water but will also help support Special Olympics Kentucky in their efforts to provide year-round sports training and competition opportunities to children and adults with intellectual disabilities.  Through sports, Special Olympics athletes build confidence and self-esteem, and develop skills they can take off the field and into their everyday lives.  Help me create a world in which all people with intellectual disabilities have a chance to be accepted and respected in their communities.
