Woweeee! We did it! We MORE than did it! 8 plungers, 15 cheerleaders and 5/10's of a second later, we shot out of that cold water to the tune of $1180 raised for Palestinian House of Friendship! And I've been told there's even more contributions on their way! Thank you so much to everyone that came out! And to the plungers! And to Katherine for the hot chocolate! What an epic start to 2019. Happy New Year and thank you everyone!

How we wish it was gonna look tomorow.... hee hee. Hey Everyone! It's working! Lots of little amounts are getting us towards our goal! Spread the word, maybe one of your friends wouldn't mind making an end-of-year donation to tax deductible 'The Advocacy Project - PHF'? Bring a check tomorrow or go directly to http://www.advocacynet.org. Be sure to write PHF in notes. So awesome! We're only $360 away from our goal!

Tom you are awesome! And a little crazy. Thanks for your commitment. Sending you warm thoughts today!
Here's a view upstream. It's probably much less icy than this right now. (Sorry for those looking for the ultra freeze plunge...)Looking forward to this so much! So excited to see all the sponsors of the plungers! Thank you for giving the fundraiser such a great kickstart, we are already half way there! Look out Roberts Brook here we come! Bring all your friends!

We are inviting you to a very fun(ny) event on January 1, 2019 - New Year’s Day - at 11 a.m. To get the New Year off to a rousing and memorable start some intrepid characters are going to jump into the Roberts Meadow Brook in Leeds at Musante Beach. Schedule: 11 am Sherrill Hogan from the American Friends of PHF who has visited the summer camps will tell us what she saw! 11 :05 am plunge! 11:05.2 seconds later (ha ha) we will serve hot chocolate! Bring extra blankets to stay warm immediately after! Ask all your friends to sponsor you by also donating! Have them visit https://palestinianhouseoffriendsip.com if they want to learn more! Have them come out and cheer (and cringe in empathic pain) for you when you jump in!
